Answer:
(x1, y1) = (3, 1)
(x2, y2) = (2,4)
the slope is
m= y2−y1/x2−x1 = 4-1/2-3 = 3/-1 = <u>-3</u>
The answer to the question
7*-4= -28 +4-12/2
-24-6
=-30
The exponential equation that gives the number of bees in week 12 is of:

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
It is modeled by:

In which:
In this problem, considering that the initial week is the first, and the value triples every week, the expression for the number of bees after x weeks is given by:

Hence, after 12 weeks, the expression is:
