Answer:

A) 3%

B) Product A

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Function

General form of an exponential function: $y=ab^x$

where:

a is the initial value (y-intercept)
b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form
x is the independent variable
y is the dependent variable

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function

If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function

Part A

Product A

Assuming the function for Product A is exponential:

$f(x) = 0.69(1.03)^x$

The base (b) is 1.03. As b > 1 then it is an increasing function.

To calculate the percentage increase/decrease, subtract 1 from the base:

⇒ 1.03 - 1 = 0.03 = 3%

Therefore, product A is increasing by 3% each year.

Part B

$\sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{final\:value-initial\:value}{initial\:value} \times 100$

To calculate the percentage change in Product B, use the percentage change formula with two consecutive values of f(t) from the given table:

$\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10201-10100}{10100}\times 100=1\%$

Check using different two consecutive values of f(t):

$\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10303.01-10201}{10201}\times 100=1\%$

Therefore, as 3% > 1%, Product A recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year.

Although the question has not asked, we can use the given information to easily create an exponential function for Product B.

Given:

a = 10,100
b = 1.01
n = t - 1 (as the initial value is for t = 1 not t = 0)

$\implies f(t) = 10100(1.01)^{t-1}$

To check this, substitute the values of t for 1 through 4 into the found function:

$\implies f(1) = 10100(1.01)^{1-1}=10100$

$\implies f(2) = 10100(1.01)^{2-1}=10201$

$\implies f(3) = 10100(1.01)^{3-1}=10303.01$

$\implies f(4) = 10100(1.01)^{4-1}=10406.04$

As these values match the values in the given table, this confirms that the found function for Product B is correct and that Product B increases by 1% per year.

Using the exponential growth function for the U. S. population from 1970 through 2003:

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the exponential growth function for the U. S. population from 1970 through 2003:

A = 205.1e^0.011t

with the U.S. population being 205.1 million in 1970, when would the U. S. population reach 350 million?

2028

2048

2018

2038

We have the expression

A = 205.1e^0.011t

We are asked to find when would the U. S. population reach 350 million

A = 350

350 = 205.1e^0.011t

We divide both sides by 205.1

Divide both sides by 205.1

350/205.1 = 205.1e^0.011t/205.1

1.7064846416 = e^0.011t

We take the log of both sides

log 1.7064846416 = log e^0.011t

log 1.7064846416 = t log 0.011

t = log 1.7064846416/ log 0.011

t = 0.1185057826
