The given functions are
Evaluate the functions.
1. Because 7/4 > 1 and the exponent is positive,
the function does not decay.
2.Because 4/5 < 1 and the exponent is negative,
the function does not decay.
3. Because 8/7 > 1 and the exponent is negative,
the function decays.
4. Because 9/2 > 1 and the exponent is positive,
the function does not decay.
A composite plot the functions verifies the answer.
