In 2000, the average monthly price for basic cable television in the United States was $29.99. In 2016, the average monthly price for the same basic cable television was $59.75. Write a linear function that models the cost of basic cable television in the United States for x years after 2000. Use the linear function to determine the cost of basic cable television in the United States in the year 2020.

The cost of basic cable television in the United States in the year 2020 will be $67.19.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear function has the following format.

In which y(x) is the cost x years after 2000, y(0) is the initial cost, that is, the cost in 2000, and a is the slope(how much the cost changes in a year).

In 2000, the average monthly price for basic cable television in the United States was $29.99.

This means that

In 2016, the average monthly price for the same basic cable television was $59.75.

2016 is 16 years after 2000. So

Write a linear function that models the cost of basic cable television in the United States for x years after 2000.

Applying y(16).

So

Use the linear function to determine the cost of basic cable television in the United States in the year 2020.

2020 is 20 years after 2000, so this is y(20).

The cost of basic cable television in the United States in the year 2020 will be $67.19.

answer:

the position of equilibrium will shift to the left.

step-by-step explanation:

the general equation for the dissociation of a weak base is

b + h₂o   ⇌   bh⁺ + oh⁻

according to le châtelier's principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond in a way that tends to relieve the stress.

if you apply a stress by adding more bh⁺ or oh⁻,   the system will respond by moving in a direction that gets rid of the added ions.

the position of equilibrium will shift to the left, forming more of the undissociated base.
