Classify the following functions as growth or decay: f(x) = 10 (6/7)^x, g(x)= 1/3e^x, h(x)=5e^-x, k(x)= -10(6/7)^x

It is known that any exponential function with the form f(x)=a^x is an increasing function while a function of the form g(x)=a^(-x) is a decreasing function.

Furthermore, it a function h(x) is increasing, then the function -h(x) is decreasing. By analogy, if a function k(x) is decreasing, then -k(x) is increasing.

Now let's analyze the functions from the problem.

\text{ Let }f(x)=10\cdot(\frac{6}{7})^x

Since (6/7)^x is increasing and the multiplying factor of 10 is positive, then the function <em>f(x)</em> is also increasing.

Use these rules to find whether each function is increasing or decreasing.

Remember that increasing functions are used to represent growth while decreasing functions are used to represent decay.

The height H of a skydiver t seconds after jumping. Let T be the independent variable, and assume the skydiver jumps from a heig
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Skydiving.  

height (in feet) above the earth=h(t)= -16t^2 + 10,000

the time it would take to fall when h is 0  

-16t^2 + 10,000=0

-16t^2=-10000

16t^2=10000

t^2=10000/16=625

t=sqrt 625=25 seconds

Graph the equation y=-x. is (5,5) on the line? what is the slope of the line?
bezimeni [28]
You'll actually need to graph for the first segment
but the second part can be solved with algebra

The equation of the line is y(x)=-x

if we test the co0ordinates we can find if the point lies on the line

(5,5)
y(x)=-x

Using the x co-ordinate
y(5)= -5
y=-5

Leaving us with (5,-5)

Because (5,-5) is not (5,5)
This is not a point on the line

The slope of the line is -1

Can there be more than one point of intersection between the graphs of two linear equations? why or why not?
SOVA2 [1]
No because they are straight lines, they cannot curve to intersect more than once, think of a capital X.
