-4 (5y + 5) = -120
multiply the bracket by -4
(-4)(5y)=-20y
(-4)(5)=-20
-20y-20=-120
move -20 to +20
-20y-20+20=-120+20
-20y=-120+20
-20y=-100
divide both sides by -20 to get y by itself
-20y/-20=-100/-20
Answer: y=5
Answer:
f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the graph, there is a point at (0, 8) and (1, 4).
That means that when x = 0, y = 8.
8 = a(b)^0
1a = 8
a = 8
That means that a = 8, and when x = 1, y = 4.
4 = 8(b)^1
4 = 8b
8b = 4
b = 4/8
b = 1/2
So, f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.
Hope this helps!
