The formula for an exponential equation is y = a * b^x with a and b being a fixed value.
"a" would also be the Y intercept, which is where the graph touches or crosses the Y axis. In the given graph, the curved line touches the Y axis at 100, so the value of a would be 100.
Now we need to find b.
The blue dot at Y 50 is lined up with x = 1, so we can use the point (1,50)
Using the X and Y values we can solve for b:
format: y = a * b^x we replace the letters with the numbers above:
50 = 100 * b^1
b^1 = b so now we have:
50 = 100 *b
Divide both sides by 100 to get b by itself:
b = 50/100, which reduces to 1/2, so b = 1/2
So the equation of the graph becomes y = 100(1/2)^x
You may need to write the 1/2 as 0.5, not sure how you need to enter it.
Answer:
Add
Divide
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have 2 medians you have to add the 2 numbers together and then divide by two. This is to find the average of the 2 numbers.
Answer:
what do you mean?
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the amount that he pays for his mortgage, so $2042, and divide that by his total pay, $5950. You’ll get .34016907. Then to make a decimal into a percentage, you multiply it by 100. This gives you 34%, meaning he spends less than the national average on housing.
