The answer is D. 2 + -3 = -1
Answer:
y = -3 + 6ˣ
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 is the lowest it goes, and the more you increase the base, the more it its stretch will become. Now, although it passes through -2, we are not dealing with y-intercept here because this is NOT a linear function. This is called a horizontal asymptote. This is an exponential function, from the parent function of <em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>abˣ</em><em>,</em><em> </em>if I can recall correctly. Anyway, you understand?

We solve this the following way:
tie dyed shirts = x
white shirts = y
x = 3y
x + y = 196
3y + y = 196 (we substitute the x with the 3y in the main equation)
4y = 196 (divide this)
y =49
x = 147
The man sold 147 tie dyed shirts and 49 white shirts.
