An exponential function f(x)=ab^x passes through the points (0,7) and (3, 189). what are the values of a and b?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of a is 7.

The value of b is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function:

[tex]f(x) = ab^{x}[/tex]

Point (0,7)

This means that when [tex]x = 0, f(x) = 7[/tex]. So

[tex]f(x) = ab^{x}[/tex]

[tex]7 = ab^{0}[/tex]

[tex]a = 7[/tex]

So

[tex]f(x) = 7b^{x}[/tex]

(3, 189)

This means that when [tex]x = 3, f(x) = 189[/tex]. We use this to find b. So

[tex]f(x) = 7b^{x}[/tex]

[tex]189 = 7b^{3}[/tex]

[tex]b^3 = \frac{189}{7}[/tex]

[tex]b^3 = 27[/tex]

[tex]b = \sqrt[3]{27}[/tex]

[tex]b = 3[/tex]

The value of b is 3.

an experiment compares the heights of two plants over time. a plant was 2 cm tall at the beginning of the experiment and grew 0.5 centimeters each day. the function f(t)=0.5t+2 represents the height of the plant in centimeters after t days.

The graph shows the height of the second plant, g(t) in centimeters, as a function of time t in days.

Part 1: which plant, f or g, was growing faster?

Part 2: Which plant, f or g, was taller to begin with?

Part 3: Which plant, f or g, was taller after 8 days?

Answers

Answer:

Part 1: plant f

Part 2: plant g

Part 3: plant g

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️First plant:

Function: f(t) = 0.5t + 2

where,

f(t) = height of plant

t = number of days

m = slope/rate of change = 0.5 cm/day

b = y-intercept/initial height = 2 cm

✔️Second Plant: using two points on the graph, (0, 5) and (16, 9), let's find b and m for the function of the second plant.

Slope/rate of change (m) = ∆y/∆x = (9 - 5)/(16 - 0) = 4/16 = 0.25

m = 0.25 cm/day

The y-intercept or initial height is the y-coordinate of the point where the line intercepts the y-axis = 5

b = 5 cm

Towbrute the equation of the function, substitute m = 0.25 and b = 5 into g(t) = mt + b

Thus:

g(t) = 0.25t + 5

Knowing these, let's answer the problem given:

Part 1: plant f was growing faster because it has a greater rate of change/slope (m) of 0.5 cm/day

Part 2: plant g was taller because it has a greater initial value/y-intercept (b) which is 5 cm

Part 3: To find out which plant was taller after 8 days, substitute t = 8 into the equation of each function:

Plant f: f(t) = 0.5t + 2

f(8) = 0.5*8 + 2 = 4 + 2

f(8) = 6 cm

Plant g: f(t) = 0.25t + 5

g(8) = 0.25*8 + 5 = 2 + 5

g(8) = 7 cm

Thus, plant g was taller after 8 days having 7 cm

The ZIP code is a system of postal codes used by the United States Postal Service (USPS) since 1963 and is often called ZIP. The letters ZIP are an acronym for Zone Improvement Plan and must be written in capital letters. The term ZIP was chosen to suggest that postal mail travels more efficiently, and therefore faster, when senders use the code. It was chosen to suggest that mail travels more efficiently, and therefore faster. , when senders use the postal address code. The basic format is made up of five numeric digits. In 1983 the ZIP + 4 zip code system was introduced in the US, adding four digits to the end of the old five-digit codes. The four added digits can help determine a more precise location. The term "ZIP Code" was initially registered as a service mark (a type of trademark) by the United States Postal Service, but the registration has since expired.

A flag pole casts a 5 foot shadow while a nearby sign post casts a l 1/4 foot shadow. Find the height of the flagpole if the sign post is 4 feet high.

Answers

Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

if the signpost is 4 ft and the shadow is 1.25 feet, the ratio of the shadow to post is 1.25:4 or 5/16

If the flagpole makes a 5 ft shadow, the equation for the height is 5/(5/16)

5/(5/16) = 5/0.3125 = 16

Answers

Answer:

z = -11, z = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, ([tex]f(z)=\sqrt{z+27} -z[/tex]) and ([tex]f(z)=7[/tex]), set up an equation that puts the first value of ([tex]f(z)[/tex]) equal to the other given value of the function.

[tex]f(z)=\sqrt{z+27}-z=7[/tex]

Use inverse operations to solve,

[tex]\sqrt{z+27}-z=7\\\\\sqrt{z-27}=7+z\\\\z+27 = (7+z)^2\\\\z + 27 = 49+14z+z^2\\ -(27+z)\\\\0 = z^2+13z+22[/tex]

The water diet requires one to drink two cups of water every half hour from when one gets up until one goes to bed, but otherwise allows one to eat whatever one likes. Four adult volunteers agree to test the diet. They are weighed prior to beginning the diet and after six weeks on the diet. The weights (in pounds) are

Person 1 2 3 4
Weight before the diet 180 125 240 150
Weight after six weeks 170 130 215 152

For the population of all adults, assume that the weight loss after six weeks on the diet (weight before beginning the diet minus weight after six weeks on the diet) is normally distributed with mean (µ). When testing the claim that the diet leads to weight loss after six weeks for all adults given that α=0.05, do you reject or fail to reject the Null Hypothesis, why or why not?
