We know that the population is declining at a rate of 14% per year.
The expression is:
N ( x ) = 206 * ( 0.86 ) ^ x
where x stays for years.
If we want to find the rate at which the population is declining per month we have to find:
![\sqrt[12]{0.86} = 0.9875](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B0.86%7D%20%3D%200.9875%20%20)
And 0.9875 ≈ 0.99
There are 12 months in a year so the exponent is: x/12
Answer:
b. ( .99 ) ^ x/12
A) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 5
B) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 4
C) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 3
D) 4⁰ = 4 ÷ 4 = 1
4⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 4 = 
4⁻² =
÷ 4 = 
E) 3⁰ = 3 ÷ 3 = 1
3⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 3 = 
3⁻² =
÷ 3 = 
Answer:
14
