The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:

y=y_0e^{kx}

if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.

Now we need to classify each of the functions:

1.

The function

y=\frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{e})^{-2x}

can be wrtten as:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{4}(e^{-1})^{-2x}^{} \\ =\frac{1}{4}e^{2x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.

2.

The function

y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x}

can be written as:

\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x} \\ y=(e^{-1})^{4x} \\ y=e^{-4x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.

3.

The function

y=2e^{-x}+1

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.

find the equation of the line passing through the points (2,4) and (3,2). find both green and grey box
Leto [7]

Answer:

  y = -2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2-point form of the equation of a line is useful when two points are given.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  y = (2 -4)/(3 -2)(x -2) +4

  y = -2(x -2) +4

  y = -2x +8
