Raymond and Shauna must convince at least 5 more city council member. Because if every 2/6 members agree with the idea, then there would be 8 people out 24 that already agree with the idea. So if you have already 8 members then to make 13, you just need 5 (8 + 5=13) more people to 13.

Identify whether the equation represents an exponential growth or exponential decay function.1. y = 1/4 (1/e)^-2x2. y = (1/e)^4x
zvonat [6]

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.

3. Jenny puts two wooden blocks together. One block has a length of 5 in., a width of 4 in., and a
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

140 inches cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula V = length * width * height to find the volumes of each block, then add them together to get the combined volume. So, (5 * 4 * 5) + (4 * 5 * 2) = 140 inches cubed, which is the combined volume.

Hopefully this helps- let me know if you have any questions!
