Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, start out with the parent function:

Now, we look at the transformations, and make the equation.
We see that the graph <u>shifted down 4 units</u>, since the <u>graph's horizontal asymptote</u> is at y = -4.

We see point (0, -3) to point (1, -1). The value of b would be 3. The reason is that when you <u>plug 0 in, you get 1, then 1 - 4 equals 3. (0, -3),</u>
<u>Then, when you plug in 1, you get 3, then 3 - 4 equals -1. This matches up with the graph.</u>

Answer:
"To the nearest year, it would be about 9 years"
Step-by-step explanation:
11c)
This is compound growth problem. It goes by the formula:

Where
F is the future amount
P is the present (initial) amount
r is the rate of growth, in decimal
t is the time in years
Given,
P = 20,000
r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08
F = double of initial amount = 2 * 20,000 = 40,000
We need to find t:

To solve exponentials, we can take Natural Log (Ln) of both sides:

Using the rule shown below we can simplify and solve:

We can write:

To the nearest year, that would be about 9 years
First, let's move combine like terms:
-5y + 8y = 6 + 2 -12.
3y = -4.
y = -4/3
