Since the variable x is at the exponent, this is an exponential function.
To decide whether an exponential function is a growing or decaying one, we have to look at the base of the exponent.
If the base is between 0 and 1, we have exponential decay
If the base is larger than 1, we have exponential growth.
In your case the base is 3, which is larger than 1, so you have exponential growth.
Thus, <u>option d</u> is your answer
13000-5600=7400...that's about it, just multiply then subtract
Answer: $8.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of a bread = x
Let the price of a tarts = x - 1
If 3 times the price of a loaf of bread is $29.5 more than half of the price of a box of tarts. This can be represented as:
3 × x = 1/2 × (1 - x) + 29.5
3x = 0.5 - 0.5x + 29.5
3x + 0.5x = 29.5 + 0.5
3.5x = 30
x = 30/3.5
x = 8.6
Answer: i) f(-9)= 66
ii)
.
iii) 
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function :
.
i) For f(-9) , the independent variable is x= -9.
Put x= -9 in given function , we get


Thus , f(-9)= 66
ii) For f(x+1) , the independent variable is x= x+1.
Replace x by x+1 in given function , we get
.

Thus ,
.
iii)For f(-x) , the independent variable is x=-x.
Replace x by -x in given function , we get
.
[∵ (+)(-)=(-)]
Thus , 
Answer:
20cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Area= 80cm^2
we know that the expression for the area of a triangle is
A= 1/2B*H
from the given expression 1/2(8h) =80 the base is 8cm
let us substitute to find the height h
1/2(8h) =80
4h=80
h= 80/4
h= 20cm
Hence the heigth h is 20cm
