Why do basic exponential functions always have a horizontal asymptote at y = 0?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

As x-approaches infinity, we get a rational function whose denominator becomes bigger and bigger while the numerator is constant

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic exponential functions are of the form:

y =  {b}^{ x}

where b is a constant.

Horizontal is the horizontal line the graph of a function approaches when as x-values approaches infinity.

For exponential growth functions, as x-approaches negative infinity the function approaches zero, i.e y=0.

For exponential decay functions as x-approaches positive infinity the function approaches zero.

The reason is that, in each case we get a rational expression whose denominator grows bigger and bigger, while the numerator remains constant.

If a boat travels 408 miles in 6 hours how many miles can it travel in 1 hour
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Simple answer is 68

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation, you can already tell that there is 408 miles traveled in 6 hours. Now since you are trying to only get the answer for how far it would go in one hour, you would have to divide 408 into 6 equal numbers, which would be 68. To prove it is correct, multiply 68 6 times and you will be back to 408.

A local eat-in pizzeria wants to investigate the possibility of starting to deliver pizzas. The owner of the store has determine
Alja [10]

Answer:

Hypothesis Test is:

Null Hypothesis                                H₀         x  =  37

Alternative Hypothesis                     Hₐ         x  >  37

With that test hypothesis if we accept H₀  the result indicates that we can support that the average delivery time  is equal to 37 we can proceed with the project. If on the other hand, we need to reject H₀ that means that the average delivery time exceed 37

Step-by-step explanation:

The limit average time is 37 minutes. Therefore under that value, the owner is happy. From the sample we have:

Sample size    n  =  15

we have data from delivery times then we have the mean    x  of the sample  and standard deviation of the sample   s

We assume normal distribution and as  n <  30 test should be developed with t - student distribution.

Hypothesis Test is:

Null Hypothesis                                H₀         x  =  37

Alternative Hypothesis                     Hₐ         x  >  37

With that test hypothesis if we accept H₀  the result indicates that we can support that the average delivery time  is equal to 37 we can proceed with the project. If on the other hand, we need to reject H₀ that means that the average delivery time exceed 37
