Mr. Johnson owns an online store. The first month, the online store received 500 orders. For each month that followed, the number of orders the online store received was approximately 25% more than the number of orders received the previous month. Mr. Johnson writes this equation to model the approximate number of orders, y, received each month following the first month:
y=500(0.25)^x

There is an error in this equation. Describe the error that was made in this equation.

so what is the problem what are they asking you to solve

step-by-step explanation:

so what is the problem what are they asking you to solve

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x

alright so i think for this one it would to draw it out. this may be hard for me to try and draw, but i will do my best on here:

        r

notice how it forms 2 triangles inside one bigger triangle.

so if we know the angle spr is the same as psr that is saying the measure of angle p is the same as angle s. this means the big triangle psr is either isosceles or equilateral. in both cases, the triangle is perfectly symmetrical when split down the middle, which is in this case rq. because we know it is perfectly symmetrical on both sides, we know that the two triangles inside the bigger one are equal.
