We will have the following:
From the polynomial we will have that:
*It falls to the left and rises to the right.
This can be seeing as follows:
Answer:
p70 is the point of the bottom lines
Answer: Choice B) Investment decreases by 3% each month
=====================================================
Explanation:
We won't use the value 2500 at all.
The base of the exponential is 0.97
Set this equal to 1+r and solve for r
1+r = 0.97
r = 0.97-1
r = -0.03
The negative r value indicates we have exponential decay, so the value of the investment decreases by 3% each month.
Let's say you had $100 to start off. This would mean the investment would be worth $97 after one month is up.
