Acity population, which was initially 15,500, has been dropping by 3% a year. write an exponential function and graph the function. use the graph to predict when the population will drop below 8,000.

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )

answer: - (a)

(b) 88 seats

step-by-step explanation:

given: in an auditorium, there are 22 seats in the first row and 28 seats in the second row.

thus first term=

second term=

the number of seats in a row continues to increase by 6 with each additional row.

⇒d= 6

a) given formula :

b)   let the number of seats (n) = 12

substitute n=12 in the explicit rule formed in (a)

∴there are 88 seats in 12 rows.
