What is the exponential function that best models the number of gnats the scientists have

Mathematics

IrinaVladis [17]1 year ago

Answer:

  (b)  f(x) = 12.5(1.6^x)

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential model is generally of the form ...

  f(x) = a·b^x

where 'a' is the initial value (for x=0), and 'b' is the growth factor, the multiplier when x increases by 1.

<h3>Growth factor</h3>

The ratio of the f(x) values for x=0 and x=1 is 20/12 ≈ 1.67. A number close to this will be the growth factor in the exponential function. There is only one answer choice showing a growth factor near 1.6. (Eliminates choices A, C, D.)

An exponential regression model can be produced by many graphing calculators and spreadsheets. The attachment shows a model that has the values matching choice B.

Delvig [45]

Answer:1. Is right 3 down 5, because to get from x(0,0) to x'(3,-5), you need I shift to the right 3 and downwards 5.

2. Counterclockwise 180 degrees. This is because 180 degrees is half of a full rotation (360 degrees), meaning the point would be the same no matter which way you rotated 180 degrees.

3. Clockwise 90 degrees. Going counter clock wise 270 degrees is like going around 3/4 of a circle (because 270/360 is 3/4). Just as well, going clock wise 90 degrees is like going 1/4 of the circle, but in the opposite direction. This means they will both land at the same point.

Hope this Helps!
