Answer:
The correct answer with step-by-step explanation:
So, here we have an exponential function.
Remember that an exponential function has the form:
Where a represents an initial amount, and r is the rate of this amount to change. (Increase, or decrease).
So, given that the population of City A in 2000 was 40 thousand people and the population increased by 13% each year, we can say that
So,
For city B:
But something different happens with city C. This is not an exponential function, this is a linear function.
So,
Answers:
Slope = 3/4
y intercept = -1/2
================================================
Explanation:
The form y = mx+b is known as slope intercept form
m is the slope and b is the y intercept
Comparing y = (3/4)x - 1/2 to y = mx+b, we see that
m = 3/4
b = -1/2
The number is 28.
The equation would be:
237 + 6(x) = 405
The problem states that 6 times the opposite of a number, however, since the number sign was not given, we do not know whether it is in a positive or negative form. So we leave it as only x.
237 + 6x = 405
6x = 405 - 237
6x = 168
6x / 6 = 168 / 6
x = 28
To check:
237 + 6 (28) = 405
237 + 168 = 405
405 = 405
I believe it should be 22½ or 22 books
You would need to divide 18 and ⅘
18 ÷ ⅘ = 22½
I hope this helps, even though I’m not totally sure :)
