(-2, -9)
Simply plug -2 into the equation.
Answer:
last option
Step-by-step explanation:
It will take 200 / 5 = 40 months for Sara's phone to lose all its value, therefore, the domain is 0 ≤ t ≤ 40 because you can't have negative months. Since negative money is not a thing, the range has to be 0 ≤ V(t) ≤ 200 because it stops at 0 and starts at 200.
Next time, don't procrastinate much.
A is located at Y=-2
B is also located at Y=-2
so the slope is zero
and the equation is y=-2
To get the exponential model we use the form:
y=abˣ
where:
a=initial value
b=growth factor
y=number of years
thus using point (1,63) and (2,226)
the growth factor will be:
b=(226/63)=3.587~3.6
a=63
thus the formula for the function will be:
A(y)=a(3.6)^y
substituting (1,63) in the equation and solving for a.
63=a(3.6)^1
thus
a=63/3.6=17.5
hence the formula will be:
A(y)=17.82(3.6)^y
Answer: D] 17.5(3.6)^y
2] The number of acres defoliated after 5 years will be as follows:
y=5 years
A(y)=17.82(3.6)^y
plugging in the value we get:
A(y)=17.82(3.6)^5
simplifying the above
A(y)=10775.07
A(y)=10775
Answer: D
