Use an exponential expression to calculate the area covered by purple loosestrife 7 years from now. Is this a valid prediction? What does this result tell you about the constraints on the exponential model?

The area of the wetland that will be covered in purple loosestrife 7 years from now is modeled by this expression.

500(1.2)^7

After evaluating the expression, the model predicts that approximately 1,792 acres of the wetland will be covered in purple loosestrife 7 years from now. This is not a valid prediction because the total area of the wetland is only 1,240 acres. So a constraint on the model is that the value of the expression 500(1.2)^t must be less than or equal to 1,240.

your answer is 23/2 - 13.5

step-by-step explanation:

7/2 evaluates to

multiply x and 4.5

multiply x and 1

the x just gets copied along.

the answer is x

x

4.5*x evaluates to 4.5x

multiply 3 and 4.5x

multiply 1 and x

the x just gets copied along.

x

4.5*x*3 evaluates to 13.5x

7/2-4.5*x*3 evaluates to

  + 8 =

the answer is

7/2-4.5*x*3+8 evaluates to

yes because there is exactly one y value for every x value

for function there can't be more than one value for every x value
