Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributive property. It should now look like this: 30x - 50 = -20
Add 50 to each side, so it now looks like this: 30x = 30
Divide each side by 30 to cancel out the 30 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 1

I hope this helps!

Which equations represent exponential growth? Which equations represent exponential decay? Drag the choices into the boxes to co

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Exponential growth functions are:

$A=20000(1.08)^{t}$

$A=40(3)^{t}$

$A=1700(1.07)^{t}$

Exponential decay functions are:

$A=80(\frac{1}{2})^{t}=80(0.5)^{t}$

$A=1600(0.8)^{t}$

$A=1700(0.93)^{t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

An exponential function is of the form $y=ab^{x}$ , where, $a\ne 0$ .

Now, if a > 0 and b > 1, then the exponential function represent exponential growth.

If a > 0 and 0 < b < 1, then the exponential function represent exponential decay.

Let us check each function now.

Option 1: $A=20000(1.08)^{t}$

Here, $a = 20000, b = 1.08$

As 1.08 > 1, the function is exponential growth.

Option 2: $A=80(\frac{1}{2})^{t}=80(0.5)^{t}$

Here, $a = 80, b = 0.50$

As 0.5 < 1, the function is exponential decay.

Option 3: $A=1600(0.8)^{t}$

Here, $a = 1600, b = 0.8$

As 0.8 < 1, the function is exponential decay.

Option 4: $A=40(3)^{t}$

Here, $a = 40, b = 3$

As 3 > 1, the function is exponential growth.

Option 5: $A=1700(1.07)^{t}$

Here, $a = 1700, b = 1.07$

As 1.07 > 1, the function is exponential growth.

Option 6: $A=1700(0.93)^{t}$

Here, $a = 1700, b = 0.93$

As 0.93 < 1, the function is exponential decay.

What is the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form?

SSSSS [86.1K]

First, we find the slope
(4,0)(0,-3)
slope = (-3 - 0) / (0 - 4) = -3/-4 = 3/4

there can be 3 possible answers for this..
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (4,0)...x1 = 4 and y1 = 0
now we sub
y - 0 = 3/4(x - 4) <== this is one answer

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (0,-3)...x1 = 0 and y1 = -3
now we sub
y - (-3) = 3/4(x - 0) =
y + 3 = 3/4(x - 0) <== here is another answer

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (-4,-6)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -6
now we sub
y - (-6) = 3/4(x - (-4) =
y + 6 = 3/4(x + 4) <=== and here is another answer

Suppose you are solving an inequality. Under what circumstances do you reverse the inequality symbol? Select all that apply.

Which exponential function is represented by the

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

C, f(x) = 3(2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-intercept is 3, the function will have 3 multiplying by some number to the power of x.

As x increases by 1, we notice that y multiplies by 2 every time.

This leads us to believe that the equation is 3 * 2^x
