Which of the following functions shows an initial amount of $15 and an increase of 35% each year?

• y = 15(35)^x

• y = 15(1 + 0.35)^x

• y = 15(0.35)^x

• y = 35(1+ 0.15)^x

Suppose a culture of bacteria begins with 5000 cells and dies by 30% each year. Write an equation that represents this situation.

• y=5000(1 - 0.30)^x

• y=30(5000)^x

• y=5000(1 + 0.30)^x

• y=5000x^x

Graph the solution to the system. The first equation has been plotted for you.

y = -3x-3

y= 4x +4

What is the value of y in the solution to this system of equations? 3x - 5y = 22 y = -5x + 32
