Which situation could be modeled by using a linear function ?
1) a bank account balance that grows at a rate of 5% per year compounded annually
2) a population of bacteria that doubles every 4.5 hours
3) the cost of the cell phone service that charges a base amount plus 20 cents per minute
3) the concentration of medicine in a persons body that decays by a factor of one- third every hour

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x
