![f(t)=100(0.8)^t](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28t%29%3D100%280.8%29%5Et)
The equation is in the format
![f(t)=ab^t](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28t%29%3Dab%5Et)
where a is the initial value (when t=0), b is the rate of change between terms, and t is the amount of time.
Our initial value is 100. We find the rate of change by first finding the percent of change:
amount of change/original amount
= 20/100 = 0.2
This is a percent decrease, so we will subtract it from 1:
1-0.2 = 0.8
This goes in for b.
Answer:
36/45 and 35/45
Step-by-step explanation:
5 and 9's least common denominator is 45 and to get to that you need to multiply both top and bottom of how to get to 45. How I got to 45 the easiest way is to keep multiplying both numbers until the reach the same product. In this case for 4/5, you multiply it by 9 for top and bottom. And for 7/9, it would be multiplying by 5 for top and bottom which will get you both of the answers. Hopefully this answers your question.
