The exponential function with a growth factor has a rate greater than 1

The percentage growth rate is 276%

<h3>How to determine the percentage growth rate?</h3>

The growth factor (b) is given as:

b = 3.76

The growth factor (b) is greater than 1.

So, the percentage growth rate (r) is calculated as:

r = b - 1

Substitute known values

r = 3.76 - 1

Evaluate the difference

r = 2.76

Express as percentage

r = 276%

Hence, the percentage growth rate is 276%

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to y - 12 = 2x – 8 that passes through the point (2, 3). (answer in slope-intercept fo

Alla [95]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a Line

We can find the equation of a line by using two sets of data. It can be a pair of ordered pairs, or the slope and a point, or the slope and the y-intercept, or many other combinations of appropriate data.

We are given a line

$y - 12 = 2x -8$

And are required to find a line perpendicular to that line. Let's find the slope of the given line. Solving for y

$y = 2x +4$

The coefficient of the x is the slope

$m=2$

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of m, thus

$\displaystyle m'=-\frac{1}{2}$

We know the second line passes through (2,3). That is enough information to find the second equation:

$y-y_o=m'(x-x_o)$

$\displaystyle y-3=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

Operating

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)+3$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$

That is the equation in slope-intercept form. Intercept: y=4

denpristay [2]

Answer:

D. x2 + x - 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x – 4)(x + 5).

= x(x + 5) -4(x + 5).

= x2 + 5x – 4x – 20.

= x2 + x - 20.

What makes b in the equation true 3/8 X 8/b

Gala2k [10]

$\frac{3}{8} * \frac{8}{b} = \frac{3}{1} * \frac{1}{b}$ (I crossed simplify)

Next cross multiply;

3b = 1

b = 1/3

To check if the statement is true just substitute the value of b in the equation;

3b = 1

3(1/3) = 1

1 = 1

What is 1 1/2 subtracted from the sum of 4 2/3 and 5 2/5

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

7 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to add 4 2/3 and 5 2/5.

We should begin with converting the fractions into improper fractions.

4 2/3 + 5 2/5= 14/3 + 27/5

Now, we find the common denominator

= 70/15 + 71/15

We can add:

= 141/15

And simplify.

= 9 2/5

Finally, we subtract 1 1/2 from 9 2/5

Your answer is 7 9/10. Hope this helps!
