What is the growth factor of the following example? Assume time is measured in the units given. A forest shrinks 80% per century.

a. 20 per century c. 80 per century
b. 0.20 per century d. 0.80 per century

Please select the best answer from the choices provided

B. 0.20 per century

Step-by-step explanation:

I calculated it logically

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation
