A direct variation function contains the points (–8, –6) and (12, 9). Which equation represents the function? y = –4/3x y = –3/4
Zina [12379]

Answer:

First, we must calculate the slope

m=Y2-Y1/X2-X1

= 9 - (-6) / 12 - (-8)

= 15/20

= 3/4

Therefore, the equation with the slope of 3/4 is Y=3/4x

A home’s value increases at an average rate of 5.5% each year. The current value is $120,000. What function can be used to find
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

f(x)=120000 \times (1.055)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The present value of the house is $120,000 and the interest rate is 5.5%, or 0.055.

We will utilize the following equation:

f(x)=P \times (1+r)^{x}

where P represents the present value, r symbolizes the interest rate, and x refers to the number of years.

By inputting the values into the above equation, we can obtain:

f(x)=120000 \times (1+0.055)^{x}

f ( x ) = 120000 \times ( 1.055 ) ^ { x }
