Answer:

B is the correct answer :))

because she's doing the math so that there are 40 plants in each row. So, she's trying to figure out how many rows she will need. When she does the math for 40 plants in each row, she ends up with 193 rows, and 25 corn plants left over

The price of products may increase due to inflation and decrease due to depreciation. Marco is studying the change in the price

Answer:

A) 3%

B) Product A

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Function

General form of an exponential function: $y=ab^x$

where:

a is the initial value (y-intercept)
b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form
x is the independent variable
y is the dependent variable

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function

If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function

Part A

Product A

Assuming the function for Product A is exponential:

$f(x) = 0.69(1.03)^x$

The base (b) is 1.03. As b > 1 then it is an increasing function.

To calculate the percentage increase/decrease, subtract 1 from the base:

⇒ 1.03 - 1 = 0.03 = 3%

Therefore, product A is increasing by 3% each year.

Part B

$\sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{final\:value-initial\:value}{initial\:value} \times 100$

To calculate the percentage change in Product B, use the percentage change formula with two consecutive values of f(t) from the given table:

$\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10201-10100}{10100}\times 100=1\%$

Check using different two consecutive values of f(t):

$\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10303.01-10201}{10201}\times 100=1\%$

Therefore, as 3% > 1%, Product A recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year.

Although the question has not asked, we can use the given information to easily create an exponential function for Product B.

Given:

a = 10,100
b = 1.01
n = t - 1 (as the initial value is for t = 1 not t = 0)

$\implies f(t) = 10100(1.01)^{t-1}$

To check this, substitute the values of t for 1 through 4 into the found function:

$\implies f(1) = 10100(1.01)^{1-1}=10100$

$\implies f(2) = 10100(1.01)^{2-1}=10201$

$\implies f(3) = 10100(1.01)^{3-1}=10303.01$

$\implies f(4) = 10100(1.01)^{4-1}=10406.04$

As these values match the values in the given table, this confirms that the found function for Product B is correct and that Product B increases by 1% per year.
