Answer:

7.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth/decay is modeled as:

A = P(1+r)^t

where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate, and t is time.

If t = 0 represents 2015, and t = 2 represents 2017, then:

26000 = P(1+r)^0

30000 = P(1+r)^2

(1+r)^0 = 1, so P = 26000.  Substituting:

30000 = 26000(1+r)^2

1.154 = (1+r)^2

1.074 = 1+r

r = 0.074

The rate of increase is 7.4%.

Use the Distributive Property to write each expression as an equivalent algebraic expression. (7 + a)3 Question 4 options: 3(7a)
AysviL [449]

Answer:

(B)21+3a

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression is said to be distributive when:

(a+b)c=a \cdot c+b \cdot c

Given the algebraic expression: (7 + a)3

Applying the distributive property

(7 + a)3 = 7 \cdot 3+a \cdot 3\\=21+3a

An equivalent expression is 21+3a.

The correct option is B

30 POINTS!!! PLEASE HELP ME
Ludmilka [50]

Remark

All you need is 2 points to get the line of the equation. One is itself (B and B') is the same in both triangles. Now we need to find one more point. Since this is a reflection, the midpoint between C and C' is the second point. That choice of C and C' is completely arbitrary.

Step One

y intercept of the line. That point is B which is (0,1)

Step Two

Find the midpoint between C and C'

C is (-4,-2) and C' is ( 0 , - 4) The midpoint is

C" = (x2 + x1)/2 , (y2 + y1)/2

C" = (-4 + 0 )/2 , (-2 + - 4) / 2

C" = (-4)/2 , - 6/2

C" = (-2, - 3) C" is the midpoint between C and C'

Step 3

Find the equation of the line.

y = ax + b We are trying to find A

y = ax + 1

-3 = a(-2) + 1

-3 - 1 = a(-2)

- 4 = a(-2) Divide by -2

-4/-2 = a

a = 2

The slope of the line is 2

Answer

y = 2x + 1

X - y = 0<br><br>A, B, C, or D​
skad [1K]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation y = mx + b.

m represents the slope

b represents where the line crosses the y axis.

We can attempt to set up the equation given in the same way.

x - y = 0

Add y to both sides and the 0 can drop out.

x = y

This is also equal to:

y = x

In this equation the m is equal to 1 and the b is equal to 0.

Taking this into account the answer is D.
