Jeff and his brother Joe are saving money
to buy a video game that costs $52. Jeff
earns $8 each week mowing lawns and
spends $2 of it. Joe earns $IO each week
and spends $3 of it. Which expression can
be used to find out how many weeks it will
take for them to save for the video game?
52 + [(8 + 2) - (10 + 3)]
52 = [(8 - 2) - (10 - 3)]
c. 52 + [C8 - 2) + (10 - 3)]
d. 52 + [(8 + 2) + (10 + 3)]

Aline passes through the points (5,4) and (2.1). part a.) what is the slope of the line that passes through these points? show work. part b.) what is the equation of the line that passes through these points. show work. part c.) where does the line intercept on the x& y axis? show work

The biologist has a second culture to examine. she knows that the population of the culture doubles every 15 minutes. after 1 hour and 15 minutes, her assistant found that 80,000 bacteria were present. a) what was the size of the initial population? b) predict the size of the culture at t=3 hours. what was the size of the population at 40 minutes? explain and justify your answers. c) create a graph of the population as a function of time. find an equation that can be used to predict the size of the population at any time t. d) examine the rate at which the bacteria culture is growing. how fast is the culture growing after 1 hour? after 1.5 hours? after 2 hours? use a time interval of h = 0.01 hours to estimate these rates. interpret these rates in terms of the context of the problem situation. how do these three rates compare?

If (-3, y) lies on the graph of y = 3^x, then y =
