Pi is approximately 3.14 and is commonly used in academic equations.
The first 100 digits of pi are 3.1415926535 8979323846 2643383279 5028841971 6939937510 5820974944 5923078164 0628620899 8628034825 3421170679
Your post (" <span>f(x) = 2/3(6)x ") would be clearer and less ambiguous if you'd please format it as follows:
</span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x. The (2/3) shows that 2/3 is the coefficient of the exponential function 6^x. Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation.
Start by graphing </span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x. The y-intercept, obtained by setting x=0, is (0, 2/3). Can you show that the value of f(x) is (2/3)*6, or 4, at x=1, (2/3)*6^2, or 24, at x = 2, and so on? What happens if x becomes increasingly smaller? The graph approaches, but does not touch, the x-axis.
If you complete this graphing assignment, then all you'd have to do is to flip the whole graph over vertically, reflecting it in the x-axis. You'll see that the graph never touchs the x-axis. Therefore, the range of this flipped graph is (-infinity, 0).</span>
4x + y = 5
3x + y = 8
y = -3x + 8
4x +(-3x + 8) = 5
4x -3x + 8 = 5
x + 8 = 5
x = -3
y = -3(-3) + 8
y = -9 + 8
y = -1
Let 
be the amount (gal) of the 40% slime solution you end up using. You want to end up with 120 gal of the 50% solution, so that you would use 
gal of the 70% solution.
You want the final solution to consist of 50% slime, or 60 gal of slime. Each gal of the 40% solution contributes 0.4 gal of slime, while each gal of the 70% solution contributes 0.7 gal of slime. This means
so the answer is B.
