Answer:
-Exponential Decay
-Decay factor is (1-0.05)
Step-by-step explanation:
-Given that the number decreases by a defined rate each year from the initial size by 5%,
-This is an exponential decay function of the form:
Where:
is the quantity/size after time t
is the initial size
is the rate of decay
-Our function can the be written as
Hence, the decay rate/factor is 0.05
#Alternatively
The exponential decay can be of the form:
Where:
y is the size at time x, a is the initial size, x is time and b is the decay factor.
b is of the form 
Hence, the decay factor is (1-0.05)
First of all get a picture of what this looks like. Desmos is a pretty good graphing program, but anything that will do polar coordinates will work.
Here is the graph.
What you can see is that this graph is symmetrical around the x axis.
When you talk about symmetry, you can think of it as taking a mirror and putting it where you think there is symmetry. If you can't tell the difference between the image and the real thing, then you have symmetry.
In this case, the mirror will show symmetry along the x axis and no where else.
Remember when you learning about the "Least Common
Multiple" and you wondered when in the world you would
ever need to use it ?
Well, here you are ! Hello !
The next time they will cross the starting line together is the
LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 30 and 40 .
Do you remember how to find it ?
Here's one easy way:
Count by 30s until you come to a number that's divisible by 40 .
Laura's first lap. . . . . . . . 30 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's two laps . . . . . . . 60 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's three laps. . . . . . 90 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's four laps. . . . . . 120 seconds . . . divisible by 40
After 120 seconds, Laura has completed four laps,
Shelby has completed only three laps.
