1] Given that the value of x has been modeled by f(x)=12500(0.87)^x, then:
the rate of change between years 1 and 5 will be:
rate of change is given by:
[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
thus:
f(1)=12500(0.87)^1=10875
f(5)=12500(0.87)^5=6230.3
rate of change will be:
(6230.3-10875)/(5-1)
=-1161.2
 rate of change in years 11 to 15 will be:
f(11)=12500(0.87)^11=2701.6
f(15)=12500(0.87)^15=1,547.74
thus the rate of change will be:
(1547.74-2701.6)/(15-11)
=-288
dividing the two rates of change we get:
-288/-1161.2
-=1/4
comparing the two rate of change we conclude that:
The average rate of change between years 11 and 15  is about 1/4  the rate between years 1 and 5.
The answer is D]
2] Given that the population of beavers decreases exponentially at the rate of 7.5% per year, the monthly rate will be:
monthly rate=(n/12)
where n is the number of months
=7.5/12
=0.625
This is approximately equal to 0.65%. The correct answer is A. 0.65%

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

40th and 80th visit

the first visit where you receive both is the 40th

Step-by-step explanation:

personally, I believe that the simplest way to solve this is use an excel spreadsheet to see which visits would include both a free beverage and a free appetizer:

  • both rewards would happen only twice, at the 40th and 80th visit.

you can also calculate it mathematically since multiples of 8 and 10 do not repeat themselves very much, only when 8 is multiplied by 5 and 10.

Can someone help me with these functions
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Function 1:

The starting point is (0,0.5)

As x increases, y increases

Function 2:

The starting point is (0,3)

As x increases, y decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the starting point, we need to plug in x=0.

y=0.5+3(0)\\\\y=0.5

y=3(0.5)^0\\\\y=3(1)\\\\y=3

As we plug in increasing numbers into function#1, the y-value increases

As we plug in increasing numbers into function #2, the y-value is decreasing
