Hi there!

f(x) = 2(1/5)ˣ
Recall the form of an exponential function:
f(x) = a(b)ˣ where:
a = initial value
b = rate of decay/growth
If b > 1, the function is undergoing exponential growth. If b < 1, then the function is undergoing exponential decay.
1/5 < 1, so the function is undergoing exponential decay, not growth.
Answer:
Gianna makes $18 per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Gianna makes 90$ for 5 hours. That means she should make
$ = 18$ every hour.
Therefore we have:
a.
HOURS DOLLARS
1 18
2 36
3 54
4 72
5 90
6 108
7 126
b.
For the tabular column mark Hours on the x - axis and Dollars on the Y - axis. It can be plotted from the above table easily.
c.
If Gianna works for 8 hours she would have made 8 X 18 = 144$.
So, she will earn 144$ in 8 hours.
d.
To make 60$ she would have to work
hours = 3.33 hours.
<u>Answer:</u>
x=3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
3(3 + x)=15+x
<u>distribute</u>
9 + 3x= 15+x
<u>subtract x from each side</u>
9+3x-x = 15
9+2x = 15
<u>subtract 9 from each side</u>
9+2x-9 = 15-9
2x = 6
<u>divide by 2</u>
2x/2 = 6/2
x=3
6/9 and 12/21
