Tobias sent a chain letter to his friends, asking them to forward the letter to more friends. The number of people who receive t

he email increases by a factor of 4 every 9.1 weeks, and can be modeled by a function, f(p) which depends on the amount of time, t (in weeks). Tobias initially sent the chain letter to 37 friends. Write an exponential function describing this scenario. Use "^" to denote an exponent and "/" to denote a fraction sign.

Answer:

  • P(t)=37\times (4)^{(t/9.1)}

Explanation:

The number of emails is multiplied by <em>4</em> every <em>9.1 weeks.</em>

Thus, since <em>Tobias initially sent the chain letter to 37 friends</em>, the number of letters will grow as per this geometric series:

Start:        37 letters

  • In 9.1 weeks: 37 × 4

  • In 2 × 9.1 weeks: 37 × (4)²

  • In 3 × 9.1 weeks: 37 × (4)³

As you see, the exponent is the number of weeks divided by 9.1

Thus, if your variable is the number of weeks, t, then the exponent is t/9.1

And the exponential function, P(t) will be:

   P(t)=37\times (4)^{(t/9.1)}

If f(x) = x3 and g(x) = (x + 1)3, which is the graph of g(x)?
ale4655 [162]
As you can see below, in red is <span>g(x) = (x + 1)^3 and in blue is f(x)=x^3. Adding 1 to x moves the graph to the left by 1. 

Hope this was the answer you were looking for and I hope you have a great day!
