This formula says that the bank will TAKE three percent of the money in your account whenever the account is inactive for a year. Nice bank ! Personally, I'd get ALL of my money out of that bank ASAP, and run, don't walk, to a different bank.
Anyway, the equation is y = 7500(0.97)^x . They want to know the y-intercept. Just like the graph of ANY equation, the y-intercept is the place where the graph is on the y-axis ... the place where x=0 . What's the value of 'y' in this equation when x=0 ? What's the value of (0.97)⁰ ? Do you remember that ANY number raised to the zero power is ' 1 ' ? (0.97)⁰ = 1 So, when x=0, y = 7500.
What does that mean ? Well, the question tells you that 'y' is the value of an account "that was left inactive for a period of 'x' years". So x=0 at the beginning, when the money is first deposited, and the account hasn't been inactive for ANY period yet.
When x=0, y=7500. The y-intercept is the amount of money that the person originally deposited in the account. If he leaves the account inactive, then the bank will multiply it by 0.97 each year ... the same as reaching in and grabbing 3% of the money in the account !
A 12 oz bag of bird seed cost $3.12 and a 16 oz bag of bird seed cost $3.84 which is the better deal
Answers
The better deal is rhe 16oz bag cause its only a few cents more to get 4 more oz more
A 16 oz bag would be better because you are getting the same amount as in (16•3=48 & 12•4=48) but 16 oz=3.84•3=11.52$ & 12 oz=3.12•4=12.48 So 16 oz is a better deal

Vita has a pice of rope that is 5 meters long. She cuts the rope into pieces that are each 1/3 meter long. How many pieces does she cut?
Answers
Normally you would divide something like this by the cuts made. So if there were cuts of 2 inches on a 10 inch rope, then you should divide 10 by 2. It's the same with this:
Multiply by the reciprocal when you are dividing fractions.
