Since \( m(3) = 4096 \), substitute into \( m(x) = 16 \cdot q^x \): \( 16 \cdot q^3 = 4096 \Rightarrow q^3 = 256 \Rightarrow q = 4 \). Now find \( m(\frac{1}{4}) \): \( m(\frac{1}{4}) = 16 \cdot 4^{\frac{1}{4}} = 16 \cdot \sqrt[4]{4} = 16 \cdot \sqrt{2} = 16 \sqrt{2} \).

Let the number of voters who voted in favor of the bill be w. According to the problem, 3 times as many voters voted against, so the number against is 3w. The report states that 18,000 more people voted against, so the equation is 3w = w + 18,000. Solving for w gives 9,000, and the number against is 3(9,000) = 27,000.

In the function g(x) = -3x + 50, the y-intercept (where x = 0) represents the initial amount of dough the baker had before making any loaves. When x = 0, g(0) = 50, indicating that the baker started with 50 pounds of dough.

From \(\frac{x}{y} = 8\), we know \(x = 8y\). Substitute into \(\frac{56x}{my} = 8\) to get \(\frac{56(8y)}{my} = 8\). Simplify to \(\frac{448y}{my} = 8\), cancel \(y\) and solve to find \(m = 56\).

Since the side lengths of square C are 8 times those of square D, the area of square C is \( 8^2 = 64 \) times the area of square D. Therefore, \( k = 64 \).

For a quadratic in the form \( y = ax^2 + bx + c \), the minimum or maximum value of \( y \) occurs at \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \). Here, \( a = 1 \) and \( b = -10 \), so \( x = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \).

Expanding the equation, we obtain \( 2x^2 - 8x + 12 = 12x - 6x^2 \). Rearranging terms, we get \( 8x^2 - 20x + 12 = 0 \). Using the quadratic formula, the sum of the solutions is given by \( -b/a \), where \( a = 8 \) and \( b = -20 \), which yields \( 20/8 = 5/2 \).

Since \(g(x) = f(x+3) = 3(6)^{x+3} = 3 \cdot 216 \cdot (6)^x = 648(6)^x\), the correct answer is g(x) = 648(6)^x.

Since the function decreases by 30%, it retains 70% of its value at each step. Thus, the multiplier for the decay is 0.70. Therefore, the correct equation is \( f(x) = 100(0.70)^x \).

To find \( p \), use the equation: \( 39 = \frac{p}{100} \times 65 \Rightarrow p = \frac{39 \times 100}{65} = 60 \). Then, calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 39 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 39 = 23.4 \).

With the slope \( \frac{7}{8} \) and point \( (4, -1) \), apply the point-slope formula to find the equation \( y = \frac{7}{8}x - \frac{23}{8} \).

The lines have different slopes, indicating that they will intersect at exactly one point.

The function \(g(x) = 1.5x\) represents a proportional increase with respect to \(x\). As \(x\) increases, \(g(x)\) also increases linearly. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Increasing Linear.'

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(n x - 72) + 36 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)n^2 < 36[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]n[/latex] is 6.

Since the triangles are similar, corresponding angles have the same trigonometric ratios. Thus, \( \sin(D) = \sin(A) = \frac{120}{125} \).

Multiplying the first equation by -2 results in \( -2x + 8y = -6 \), which matches the second equation. Thus, the lines are the same, intersecting at infinitely many points.

Substitute \( s = 10 \) into the equation: \( 4p + 2(10) = 100 \Rightarrow 4p + 20 = 100 \Rightarrow 4p = 80 \Rightarrow p = 20 \).

Using elimination or substitution, we solve for \( y = 5 \).

To find \( p \): \( 75 = \frac{p}{100} \times 150 \implies p = \frac{75 \times 100}{150} = 50 \). Calculate \( 50 \% \) of \( 75 \): \( \frac{50}{100} \times 75 = 37.5 \).

Since \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle STU \) are congruent, corresponding angles are equal. Angle \( Q \) and \( T \) are right angles, so each measures 90°. Therefore, angle \( U \) must be equal to angle \( P \), which is 25°.

Substitute \( (-14, 0) \) into both inequalities. Both inequalities are satisfied.

The mean of each data set is centered around 15, as both data sets have symmetric distributions around this value.

To isolate \(7m + 5n\), multiply both sides by \((7m + 5n)\) to get \(k = p(7m + 5n)\), then divide by \(p\) to find \(7m + 5n = \frac{k}{p}\).

First, find the measure of angle Y in radians: \( \frac{\pi}{6} + \frac{\pi}{3} = \frac{\pi}{2} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{\pi}{2} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 90 \) degrees.

To convert from square yards to square miles, divide the area by \(1760^2\): \(5,904,900 / 3,097,600 = 1.91\) square miles.

First, find the measure of angle T in radians: \( \frac{2\pi}{3} + \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{11\pi}{12} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{11\pi}{12} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 165 \) degrees.

Plug in the slope \( m = -2 \) and point \( (3, 7) \) into the point-slope formula to find the equation \( y = -2x + 13 \).

The population triples every hour, so the growth factor per hour is 3. Since there are 24 hours in a day, the population after \( x \) days is \( p = 1,000 \cdot 3^{24x} \).

To find the number of votes Angel Cruz is expected to win by, first determine the percentage of votes each candidate received. Angel received \( \frac{483}{803} \approx 0.601 \), or 60.1%. Terry received \( \frac{320}{803} \approx 0.399 \), or 39.9%. If 6,424 people vote, Angel would receive \( 0.601 \times 6424 \approx 3864 \) votes and Terry would receive \( 0.399 \times 6424 \approx 2560 \) votes. The difference is \( 3864 - 2560 = 1304 \) votes.

Expanding the left side gives \( 5x + 15 \), which matches the right side. Therefore, the equation is true for all values of x, leading to infinitely many solutions.

Start by setting up the equation: \( 32,000 = 4,000(2)^{3r} \). Divide both sides by 4,000 to obtain \( 8 = (2)^{3r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides yields \( 3 = 3r \). Therefore, \( r = 1 \).

Calculate the sum of the solutions for each factor separately. Use the given total sum of 10 to find \( p \).

Let the number of people who voted in favor of the measure be z. According to the problem, 4 times as many people voted against, so the number against is 4z. The survey states that 12,000 more people voted against, so the equation is 4z = z + 12,000. Solving for z gives 4,000.

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(3x\), from the expression: \(3x(x^2 + 9x + 18)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 9x + 18\) as \((x + 3)(x + 6)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 3.

To find the surface area of the cube, we need to determine its side length. The formula for the volume of a cube is \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 474552 \), solve for \( s \): \( s = \sqrt[3]{474552} \approx 78 \). The formula for surface area is \( 6s^2 \). Thus, the surface area is \( 6(78)^2 = 36,504 \) square units.

Data set A is skewed toward lower values, while data set B is skewed toward higher values. Therefore, the mean of Data set A is less than the mean of Data set B.

We use the Pythagorean theorem: \( c^2 = 9^2 + 12^2 = 81 + 144 = 225 \). Therefore, \( c = \sqrt{225} = 15 \). The hypotenuse can be written as \( 3\sqrt{25} \), so \( d = 25 \).

We use the Pythagorean theorem: \( c^2 = 7^2 + 24^2 = 49 + 576 = 625 \). Therefore, \( c = \sqrt{625} = 25 \). Since the length is already in the form \( \sqrt{625} [/latex}, the value of [latex] d \) is 625.

To find the area in square miles, divide by \(1760^2\): \(23,184,000 / 3,097,600 = 7.48\) square miles.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(r x - 120) + 64 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)r^2 < 64[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]r[/latex] is 8.

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{8}(x - 6)^2 + 5 \) occurs at \( (6, 5) \). This represents the minimum height of the kite. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 6 \) and \( k = 5 \), the minimum height is 5 feet above the ground.

Dividing the equation by 4, completing the square, and simplifying gives n = 4.

In the function j(x) = -0.5x + 10, the y-intercept (where x = 0) represents the initial amount of water the runner had before starting the marathon. When x = 0, j(0) = 10, indicating that the runner started with 10 liters of water.

Calculate percentages: Candidate P received \( \frac{725}{1000} = 0.725 \), or 72.5%. Candidate Q received \( \frac{275}{1000} = 0.275 \), or 27.5%. If 8,000 people vote, Candidate P would receive \( 0.725 \times 8000 = 5800 \) votes, and Candidate Q \( 0.275 \times 8000 = 2200 \) votes. The difference is \( 5800 - 2200 = 3600 \) votes.
