Part A.
1) Function given:
2) Interpretation:
initial value: => x = 0 => f(x) = 0.69
table:
x f(x)
year price
0 0.69
1 0.69 * 1.03 = 0.7107 => increase = 3%
2 0.69 * (1.03)^2 = 0.732021 => increase = 3%
So, the answer is that the function is increasing at 3% per year.
Part B.
3) table
<span> t (number of years) 1 2 3 4
f(t) (price in dollars) 10,100 10,201 10,303.01 10,406.04
Percent change:
Year 2: 10,201 / 10,100 = 1.01 => 1% increase
Year 3: 10,303.01 / 10,201 = 1.01 => 1% increase
Year 4: 10,406.04 / 10,303.01 = 1.01 => 1% increase.
Answer: the </span><span>product of the part A recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year (3% vs 1%).</span>

A) 
B) 1/4 = 25%
C) 1/8 = 12.5%
Explanation
A) Let x = the number of yellow blocks. Then x+4 = the number of red blocks, and x+x+4=2x+4 is the total number of blocks.
The probability of choosing a red block first would be
since there are x+4 red blocks out of 2x+4 total blocks.
The probability of choosing a yellow block after the red block would be
since there are x yellow blocks, and after 1 is chosen, there are 2x+3 total blocks remaining.
This gives the total probability of
B) If there are 6 yellow blocks, there are 6+4=10 red blocks, and 10+6=16 total blocks.
The probability of getting a red block first would be 10/16, and the probability of getting a yellow block after the red block would be 6/15. Together this gives us
10/16(6/15) = 60/240 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
C) If there are 6 yellow blocks, there are 6+4=10 red blocks, and 10+6=16 total blocks.
The probability of getting a yellow block first is 6/16, and the probability of getting a second yellow block after the first one is 5/15. Together this gives us
6/16(5/15) = 30/240 = 1/8 = 0.125 = 12.5%
B) 1/4 = 25%
C) 1/8 = 12.5%
