<h2>Answer</h2>
f(x) = 5(1.25)x + 4
<h2>Explanation</h2>To solve this, we are going to use the standard exponential equation:
where
is the initial amount
is the growth rate in decimal form
is the time (in months for our case)
Since the hours of classic music remain constant, we just need to add them at the end. We know form our problem that Sue initially has 5 hours of pop, so ; we also know that every month onward, the hours of pop music in her collection is 25% more than what she had the previous month, so
. Now let's replace the values in our function:
Now we can add the hours of classical music to complete our function:
We assume that we need to simplify the expression in two different ways.
Answer:
One way: Raise both, the numerator and denominator, to the third power, and then simplify the expression.
Second way: Simplify the terms inside parentheses, and then raise the result to the third power.
The result of both ways is the same:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>One way</em>
Raise both, the numerator and denominator, to the third power, and then simplify the expression:
This is the first simplification.
<em>Second way</em>
Simplify the terms inside parentheses, and then raise the result to the third power.
