Justify your answer. (5 points) Part B: The table below shows the price f(t), in dollars, of product B after t years: t (number of years) 1 2 3 4 f(t) (price in dollars) 5600 3136 1756.16 983.45 Which product recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year?

For product A, the product is increasing, for the bigger the number you plug into x (due to the fact that the numbers become bigger because of the time: year 1, year 2, etc)
Product A is 82% change rate, while 
product B is 983.45/4 = 245.8625,  1756.16/3 = <span>585.3867</span>
Product B is 245.8625/585.3867
product B is 42% change rate

Product A change rate is higher than Product B by 40%

hope this helps

<h3>Answer:  Choice A</h3>

Explanation:

Choice A has the f(x) values going down on the interval -1 < x < 1 only.

Choice B appears to be decreasing over its entire domain, so we can rule this out (since we want -1 < x < 1 to be the only decreasing interval).

Choice C's table isn't decreasing when -1 < x < 1 since y = -3 increases to y = 0 (from x = -1 to x = 0). So we can rule it out.

A similar situation happens with choice D as well, so we can rule this out. The function isn't decreasing when we go from f(-1) to f(0).
