Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Exponential Function</u>
The exponential function can be written with the general equation:

Where A is the value when x=0 and r>0 is the ratio. If r is greater than 1, the function is increasing, if r is less than 1, the function is decreasing.
The table shows the relation between values of x and values of the function y. Note that as x increases (one by one), y decreases with a ratio of 1/2. Only the last two choices have ratios of r=1/2. We only have to test which one of them has the correct value of y=4 when x=0.
Substituting in the third function:



This gives the correct value of f(0)=4.
Substituting in the fourth function:



This choice is wrong
Correct choice:

<span>Since 360 is a multiple of 120, it is automatically the LCM of this problem.

X = velocity of plane
y = velocity of wind
x - y = 1680/5 = 336 mph .....(1) [ plane flying against the wind]
&
x + y = 1680/4 = 420 mph....(2) [ plane flying with the wind]
Adding (1) and (2) to eliminate y gives
2x = 756
x = 378 mph is the speed of the plane with no wind.
