Ms. Taylor deposited $1,000 into a retirement account with an annual compound interest rate of 6.5%. What the deposit total after 15 years?​

for this case we must apply distributive property to the following expression:

the distributive property states that:

then, when applying the property we have to multiply the -2 for each term within the parenthesis:

is there any answers choices? l can try to you if there is answer choices to this question,so sorry

answer-

the equation that models this pattern is

solution-

a researcher placed a petri dish with 32,000 bacterial cells. one hour after being placed in the vacuum chamber, the number of cells in the petri dish had halved. another hour later, the number of cells had again halved.

this can be represented as exponential decreasing function,

where,

putting the values,

y-intercept means, where x=0, so

the coordinate of this poin will be (0, 32000)

this means when x=0 or at the starting of the research, the number of bacteria cells was 32000.

after 3 hours, number of bacteria cells will be,

the   coordinate of this point will be (3, 4000)
