The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:

if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.
Now we need to classify each of the functions:
1.
The function

can be wrtten as:

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.
2.
The function

can be written as:

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.
3.
The function

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.

can be simplified to by adding the 7 and 10 to get

.

cannot be simplified any more by combining like terms.
By distributing the 2b into the parentheses, you can simplify the expression:

Here you can just add:

Thus, the only expression that cannot simplify any more using adding like terms is the second,

.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
doesn't pass the vertical line test
Answer:
The x-coordinate of point P is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
A (2,3) and B (8,0)
we know that
Point P portions the segment AB in the ratio 2 to 1
so

and

where
AP_x represent the distance between the points A and P in the x-coordinates
AB_x represent the distance between the points A and B in the x-coordinates


The x-coordinate of P is equal to

where
A_x represent the x-coordinate of A
substitute the values

therefore
The x-coordinate of point P is 6
