f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

Using the information given above, complete the following statements. The percent change is %. The percent change represents .

f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

Given equation is an exponential function and in the form of f(x) = a(1-r)^x

Where 'a' is the initial population

'r' is the decay rate

'x' is the time

f(x) = a(1-r)^x

Given function is f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

1 - r = 0.92

r = 1 - 0.92

r = 0.08

r= 0.08 %

Percentage change = 0.08%

Percentage change represents the decay rate.

Answer:

8%, the rate at which the population is decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the equation <em>f(x)</em>=2,459(0.92)^t

0.92 represents the rate of change.

Because 0.92 is less than 1, it represents a decrease.

To calculate the rate of decay, subtract 0.92 from 1 (1 - 0.92 = 0.08)

To convert the rate of decay to percent, move the decimal to the right two spaces.

The answer is 8%, which represents the rate at which the population is decreasing.

How do you find the value of c that satisfy the equation:
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The value of c = -0.5∈ (-1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step(i)</u>:-

Given function f(x) = 4x² +4x -3 on the interval [-1 ,0]

<u> Mean Value theorem</u>

Let 'f' be continuous on [a ,b] and differentiable on (a ,b). The there exists a Point 'c' in (a ,b) such that

f^{l} (c)  = \frac{f(b) -f(a)}{b-a}

<u>Step(ii):</u>-

Given  f(x) = 4x² +4x -3 …(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

          f¹(x) = 4(2x) +4(1) = 8x+4

<u>Step(iii)</u>:-

By using mean value theorem

f^{l} (c)  = \frac{f(0) -f(-1)}{0-(-1)}

8c+4 = \frac{-3-(4(-1)^2+4(-1)-3)}{0-(-1)}

8c+4 = -3-(-3)

8c+4 = 0

8c = -4

c = \frac{-4}{8} = \frac{-1}{2} = -0.5

c ∈ (-1,0)

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The value of c = -0.5∈ (-1,0)

         

<u></u>
