Exercise 1:
exponential decay:
The function is given by:
y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Where,
A = 600
We look for b:
(480/600) * (100) = 80%
b = 0.8
Substituting:
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
We check for t = 6
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * 6)
y = 384
Answer:
exponential decay:
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Exercise 2:
linear:
The function is given by:
y = ax + b
Where,
a = -60 / 2 = -30
b = 400
Substituting we have:
y = -30 * x + 400
We check for x = 4
y = -30 * 4 + 400
y = 280
Answer:
linear:
y = -30 * x + 400
Exercise 3:
exponential growth:
The function is given by:
y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Where,
A = 512
We look for b:
(768/512) * (100) = 150%
b = 1.5
Substituting:
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
We check for t = 4
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * 4)
y = 1152
Answer:
exponential growth:
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
Q:3
Ans: 10.12 x 10 power -5
Q:4
Ans: 5/8
Q:5
Ans: - x cube and + x square
First multiply them all by 8
2x - 1 = 7 + 4x
Subtract 2x
-1 = 7 + 2x
Subtract 7
-8 = 2x
Divide by 2
X = -4
Ok. I’m not the smartest person. But, if I understand the question I have to divide 288 by 2. That would be 144.. but it seems too easy. Correct me if I’m wrong
