In exponential growth and decay problems, what is the independent variable?
the independent variable is almost always:
a = function
b.
c.
e = exponent
t = time
d. a = amount in the model
select the best answer from the choices provided

b. africa to the americas

explanation:

a.) a poor farmer, due to the fact that they would want to be freed from british rule.

simplify brackets

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

simplify 8 - 2a - 7 to -2a + 1

-2a + 1 = a + 40

add 2a to both sides

1 = a + 40 + 2a

simplify a + 40 + 2a to 3a + 40

1 = 3a + 40

subtract 40 from both sides

1 - 40 = 3a

simplify 1 - 40 o -39

-39 = 3a

divide both sides by 3

-39/3 = a

simplify 39/3 to 13

-13 = a

switch sides

a = -13

d. it gave farmers a way to organize for more political power
