Explain the difference between exponential growth and exponential decay

Mathematics
1 answer:
alexdok [17]3 years ago
8 0
Exponential growth is the function
y =  a^{x} , a\ \textgreater \ 1
Exponential decay is the function
y = a^{x} , 0\ \textless \ a\ \textless \ 1
So, the basic difference is that in growth the base is more than 1, and in decay the base is more than 0 but less than 1.

Mary leaves her house to take a walk. The graph shows the distance, d, in feet from her house that Mary is at any given time, t,
Vitek1552 [10]
You haven't provided the graph, therefore, I cannot provide you with a specific solution for this question.
However, I will tell you how to solve it and you can apply on the graph you have.

Now, we are given that:
x-axis represents the distance in ft
y-axis represents the time in minutes

To get the time that she has walked when she reaches the farthest point from her house, all you have to do is:
1- go to the greatest point on the x-axis. This point would be representing the farthest distance.
2- get the value of the y corresponding to the x-point you got in step one. This would be the time walked when she reaches the farthest point which is the value you are looking for.

Hope this helps :)

The systolic blood pressure of adults in the USA is nearly normally distributed with a mean of 122 and standard deviation of 22
marin [14]

Answer: 4.27% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable that denotes a person with high blood pressure .

Given: Average blood pressure: \mu=122

Standard deviation: \sigma=22

Someone qualifies as having Stage 2 high blood pressure if their systolic blood pressure is 160 or higher.

The probability that an adult in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure:

P(x\geq160)=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}}\geq\dfrac{160-122}{22})\\\\=P(z\geq1.72)\ \ \ [z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-P(z

Hence, 4.27% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure.
