Answer:

a) He needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.

b) 22 kcal come from fat.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Lee needs to consume 2400 kcal each day and 25% of this income should come from protein.

We are going to use percentages to solve this problem, to find out how many kcal from protein he should consume we need to multiply 2400 by .25.

2400 (.25) = 600

Lee needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.

b)  A cup of chili contains 220 kcal If 15% of kcal come from fat how many kcal come from fat?

We are going to solve this in a similar way.

We should multiply the total amount of kcal by .15 which is the amount of fat calories.

220 (.15) = 33

33 kcal come from fat.

Identify whether the equation represents an exponential growth or exponential decay function.1. y = 1/4 (1/e)^-2x2. y = (1/e)^4x
zvonat [6]

The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:

y=y_0e^{kx}

if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.

Now we need to classify each of the functions:

1.

The function

y=\frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{e})^{-2x}

can be wrtten as:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{4}(e^{-1})^{-2x}^{} \\ =\frac{1}{4}e^{2x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.

2.

The function

y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x}

can be written as:

\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x} \\ y=(e^{-1})^{4x} \\ y=e^{-4x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.

3.

The function

y=2e^{-x}+1

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.

If y=12 when x=3, find y when x =15 ( Y varies directly as x)​
Flauer [41]
Y = kx
when y= 12, x=3
12 = 3k
k = 12/3
k = 4

y = 4x
when x= 15
y = 4(15)
y = 60

I dont understand how to do this precalc question
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

  • x-intercept:  (-0.1, 0)
  • Horizontal Asymptote: y = -3
  • Exponential <u>growth</u>

(First answer option)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>General form of an exponential function</u>

y=ab^x+c

where:

  • a is the initial value (y-intercept).
  • b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form:
    If b > 1 then it is an increasing function.
    If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function.
  • y=c is the horizontal asymptote.
  • x is the independent variable.
  • y is the dependent variable.

Given <u>exponential function</u>:

y=4(10)^x-3

<h3><u>x-intercept</u></h3>

The x-intercept is the point at which the curve crosses the x-axis, so when y = 0.  To find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0 into the given equation and solve for x:

\begin{aligned}& \textsf{Set the function to zero}:& 4(10)^x-3 &=0\\\\& \textsf{Add 3 to both sides}:& 4(10)^x &=3\\\\& \textsf{Divide both sides by 4}:& 10^x &=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\& \textsf{Take natural logs of both sides}:& \ln 10^x &=\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)\\\\& \textsf{Apply the power log law}:&x \ln 10 &=\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)\\\\& \textsf{Divide both sides by }\ln 10:&x&=\dfrac{\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)}{\ln 10} \\\\& \textsf{Simplify}:&x&=-0.1\:\:\sf(1\:d.p.)\end{aligned}

Therefore, the x-intercept is (-0.1, 0) to the nearest tenth.

<h3><u>Asymptote</u></h3>

An <u>asymptote</u> is a line that the curve gets infinitely close to, but never touches.

The <u>parent function</u> of an <u>exponential function</u> is:

f(x)=b^x

As<em> </em>x approaches -∞ the function f(x) approaches zero, and as x approaches ∞ the function f(x) approaches ∞.

Therefore, there is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0.

This means that a function in the form  f(x) = ab^x+c always has a horizontal asymptote at y = c.  

Therefore, the horizontal asymptote of the given function is y = -3.

<h3><u>Exponential Growth and Decay</u></h3>

A graph representing exponential growth will have a curve that shows an <u>increase</u> in y as x increases.

A graph representing exponential decay will have a curve that shows a <u>decrease</u> in y as x increases.

The part of an exponential function that shows the growth/decay factor is the base (b).  

  • If b > 1 then it is an increasing function.
  • If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function.

The base of the given function is 10 and so this confirms that the function is increasing since 10 > 1.
