Since \(g(x) = f(x+2) = 8(5)^{x+2} = 8 \cdot 25 \cdot (5)^x = 200(5)^x\), the correct answer is g(x) = 200(5)^x.

The half-life is 3 years, so the remaining quantity after \( x \) minutes is \( Q = 5 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{x}{3 \cdot 365 \cdot 24 \cdot 60}} \).

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect.

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

The two equations are actually multiples of each other. Dividing the second equation by 2 yields \( 3x + 5y = 25 \). Thus, both lines coincide, which means they intersect at infinitely many points.

To find \( a \), set \( f(x) = 0 \) and solve for \( x \): \( 5x - 15 = 0 Rightarrow x = 3 \). The x-intercept is \( (3, 0) \), so \( a = 3 \). The y-intercept \( b \) is found by setting \( x = 0 \): \( f(0) = -15 \), so \( b = -15 \). Then \( a + b = 3 - 15 = -12 \).

The two lines are parallel because their slopes are equal. Dividing the first equation by 2 yields \( 3.5x + y = 7.5 \). Since this differs from the second equation, the lines are parallel and do not intersect.

Only \( (3, 3) \) is a solution that satisfies both equations.

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.

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{120}{400} \times 100 = 30\% \).

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect at any point.

First, find the measure of angle B in radians: \( \frac{\pi}{4} + \frac{3\pi}{8} = \frac{5\pi}{8} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{5\pi}{8} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 112.5 \) 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.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(m x - 40) + 25 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)m^2 < 25[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]m[/latex] is 5.

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.

To find \( p \): \( 50 = \frac{p}{100} \times 80 \implies p = \frac{50 \times 100}{80} = 62.5 \). Calculate \( 62.5 \% \) of \( 50 \): \( \frac{62.5}{100} \times 50 = 31.25 \).

To find the area in square miles, divide by \(1760^2\): \(8,673,280 / 3,097,600 = 2.8\) square miles.

The two equations are not multiples of each other, but after simplifying, they end up being parallel lines. The slopes are the same but the y-intercepts are different, which means the lines never intersect.

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(6x\), from the expression: \(6x(x^2 + 4x + 5)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 4x + 5\) as \((x + 1)(x + 5)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 1.

To find the doubling time, solve \( j(t) = 2 \cdot j(0) \), leading to \( 100,000 \cdot (1.03)^{t/350} = 200,000 \). Taking logarithms of both sides allows solving for \( t \) and then converting to hours.

For the system to have no solution, the lines must be parallel. This means their slopes must be equal. Rewrite each equation in slope-intercept form to compare slopes, leading to k = 5.

To find \( p \): \( 120 = \frac{p}{100} \times 200 \implies p = \frac{120 \times 100}{200} = 60 \). Calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 120 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 120 = 72 \).

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 200 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 200 to get \(P = \frac{w}{100}\).

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

Since \(f(x) = 1.2x\) shows a constant proportional increase, the function is linear and increases with \(x\). Thus, the correct answer is 'Increasing Linear.'

After simplifying and solving, we find \( y = 27 \).

To find \( a \), set \( p(x) = 0 \): \( 3x + 9 = 0 Rightarrow x = -3 \). Thus, \( a = -3 \). For \( b \), evaluate \( p(0) = 9 \). Therefore, \( a + b = -3 + 9 = 6 \).

Dividing the equation by 36, completing the square, and simplifying gives n = 12.

Rewrite \(f(x)\) in vertex form as \(2(x + 2)^2 - 2\). The minimum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = -2\), so \(g(x) = f(x + 1)\) shifts this to \(x = -3\).

Both sides simplify to \( 3y - 9 \), which are identical. Therefore, the equation is true for all values of y, leading to infinitely many solutions.

Given \(\frac{m}{n} = 3\), rewrite as \(m = 3n\). Substitute into \(\frac{18m}{pn} = 3\) to get \(\frac{18(3n)}{pn} = 3\). Simplify to \(\frac{54n}{pn} = 3\), then cancel \(n\) to find \(p = 18\).

To isolate \(2p + 9q\), multiply both sides by \((2p + 9q)\), resulting in \(g = w(2p + 9q)\). Dividing by \(w\) gives \(2p + 9q = \frac{g}{w}\).

Rewrite \(f(x)\) as \((x - 5)^2\). The minimum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = 5\), so \(g(x) = f(x - 2)\) shifts this minimum to \(x = 7\).

In the function f(x) = -5x + 30, the y-intercept (where x = 0) represents the initial amount of juice Caleb had before he made any popsicles. When x = 0, f(0) = 30, indicating that Caleb started with 30 fluid ounces of juice.

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

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 \( f(x) = 100(0.70)^x \).

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36 - 12}}{2} = 3 \pm \sqrt{6}\). So, the solution can be written as \(3 + \sqrt{6}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 6.

Since \(\frac{r}{s} = 6\), we get \(r = 6s\). Substitute into \(\frac{48r}{ks} = 6\) to obtain \(\frac{48(6s)}{ks} = 6\). Simplify to \(\frac{288s}{ks} = 6\), cancel \(s\) and solve for \(k = 48\).

Since \( j(5) = 15625 \), substitute into \( j(x) = 50 \cdot k^x \): \( 50 \cdot k^5 = 15625 \Rightarrow k^5 = 312.5 \Rightarrow k = 5 \). Now find \( j(0.5) \): \( j(0.5) = 50 \cdot 5^{0.5} = 50 \cdot \sqrt{5} = 50 \sqrt{5} \).

Let the number of people who voted in favor of the policy be x. According to the problem, 5 times as many people voted against it, so the number against is 5x. The article states that 40,000 more people voted against it, so the equation is 5x = x + 40,000. Solving for x gives 10,000.

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 250 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 250 to get \(P = \frac{w}{125}\).

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 \( d = 25 \).

In similar triangles, corresponding angles have the same trigonometric values. Thus, \( \sin(J) = \sin(G) = \frac{24}{25} \).

Since the decay factor is 0.82 per quarter, this gives a 18% decrease each quarter. Calculating this for a year results in approximately a 51% annual decay rate, so \(r = 51\).
