If a system consists only of a linear function and an exponential graph, what is the maximum number of solutions possible of the system?
a. 0
b. 1
c. 2
d. 3

C. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that a system consists only of a linear function and an exponential graph. We are asked to determine the maximum number of solutions possible of the system.    

Since we know that graph of an exponential function is curved. The graph of a linear function is a straight line. So, the solution for our system will be points, where our both functions will meet.

Since a straight line intersects a curved function at maximum two points. Therefore, the maximum number of solutions for our system will have 2 and option C is the correct choice.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)

c is the answer
