The price of fuel may increase due to demand and decrease due to overproduction. Marco is studying the change in the price of two types of fuel, A and B, over time.

The price f(x), in dollars, of fuel A after x months is represented by the function below:

f(x) = 2.15(0.98)x

Part A: Is the price of fuel A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per month? Justify your answer. (5 points)

Part B: The table below shows the price g(m), in dollars, of fuel B after m months:


m (number of months) 1 2 3 4
g(m) (price in dollars) 4.19 3.98 3.78 3.59

Answers

Answer 1

A rise or a decline may be represented by an exponential function in either direction.

The cost of gasoline type A is becoming higher.The price of Fuel B saw a larger percentage increase than any other fuel.

This is further explained below.

What is an exponential function?

A)

The exponential function is represented as follows for fuel A:

f(x)=2.96(1.04)^x

A representation of an exponential function looks like this:

y=a b^x

Where b is the rate being calculated.

b=1.04

Since b (which is equivalent to 1.04) is bigger than 1, it follows that the price of gasoline A is going up.

B)

A representation of an exponential function may be seen in the table.

To get the cost of gasoline type B, just divide the current price by the price that was in effect just a moment ago.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&b=\frac{3.41}{3.22} \\&b=1.06\end{aligned}[/tex]

1.06 is a higher number than 1.04, by way of comparison (the rate of fuel A).

Consequently, gasoline B had a bigger percentage shift in price than fuel A did.

f(x)= 3x; translation up 5 units

Answers

After applying the given translation we get the function as 3x + 5

Graph translation is the process of converting an equation or existing graph into a new graph.

One common type of algebraic issue is changing algebraic equations.

A parent function's graph is altered by a translation. The three different types of translation are dilations, reflections, and translations.

A function can have its y-values modified vertically or its x-values changed horizontally (affects the x-values).

We are aware that the x- and y-coordinates must be modified to reflect the translation by the specified amount.

f( x ) = 3x is translated 5 units upwards.

Therefore the required graph is f ( x ) = 3x + 5 .

Graph the image of the figure using the transformation given.

Answers

A graph of the image of figure Q'R'S'T' after a dilation of 2 units about the origin is: graph C.

What is dilation?

Dilation simply refers to a type of transformation which changes the size of a geometric object, but not its shape. This ultimately implies that, the size of the geometric object would be increased or decreased based on the scale factor used.

What is scale factor?

A scale factor can be defined as the ratio of two (2) corresponding length of sides or diameter in two similar geometric figures such as triangles.

Note: Each interval on this graph represents 1 unit.

For the given coordinates, the dilation with a scale factor of 2 about the origin or a center of dilation (0, 0) should be calculated as follows:

Point Q (-2, -1) → Point Q' (-2 × 2, -1 × 2) = Point Q' (-4, -2).

Point R (-1, 2) → Point R' (-1 × 2, 2 × 2) = Point R' (-2, 4).

Point S (1, 0) → Point S' (1 × 2, 0 × 2) = Point S' (2, 0).

Point T (2, -2) → Point T' (2 × 2, -2 × 2) = Point T' (4, -4).

A study on students drinking habits wants to determine the true average number of alcoholic drinks all uf greek students have in a one week period. We know from preliminary studies that the standard deviation is around 6. 3. How many students should be sampled to be within 0. 5 drink of population mean with 95% probability?.

Answers

Number of students need to be sampled = 610

A study to determine the true average number of alcoholic drinks consumed by Greek students is conducted.

Standard Deviation, σ = 6.3

Margin Error of population mean, E = 0.5

Probability = 95% = 0.95

The p-value corresponding to 0.95 probability = (1+0.95)/2 = 0.975

The z-score corresponding to this p-value = 1.96 [from the z-tables]

Now, The margin error, E = zσ/√n, where n is the sample size

⇒ n = (zσ/E)²

⇒ n = (1.96 x 6.3/0.5)²

⇒ n ≈ 610

Hence 610 students need to be sampled.

Using a graph typing in 9x and looking at the table, (2,1) is not on the table, so (2,1) is not a solution to 9x

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

to determine if (2, 1 ) is a solution, substitute the x- coordinate into the equation and if the result is equal to the y- coordinate then it is a solution.

y = 9x ( substitute x = 2 )

y = 9 × 2 = 18 ≠ 1

then (2, 1 ) is not a solution to the equation.

The equation for lines can be written as y=–10x+5/4. Parallel to line's is line t, which passes through the point (1,3). What is the equation of line t?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

what I understood :

line s : y = -10x + 5/4

the slope is always the factor of x (here : -10).

a parallel lines must have the same slope.

line t : y = -10x + b

to get b we use the coordinates of the given point :

3 = -10×1 + b = -10 + b

13 = b

line t : y = -10x + 13
