Please help me with this (if y’all give me some bs link I’ll report :)) pls and thank you kindly

a=8 b=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

so here a is the initial value which 8

then we can plug in 2 for x and 18 for f(x) to find b

f(x)=8*b^x

18=8*b^2

18/8=b^2

9/4=b^2

b^2=(3/2)^2

b=3/2

answer: since the question is talking about growth you have to use the growth formula which is inital amount (1 + growth)^time

step-by-step explanation:

the intial amount is 1200, the growth is 4.8, and the time is 7. plug those numbers into the equation, also i think you have to change 4.8 into a percent. but, i have forgotton how to do that. if this is a online class go on to the lesson.

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
