Mark raises guppies in an aquarium. He finds out that guppies reproduce very rapidly, and the number quadruples every month. He
starts out with only 2 guppies, and the function y equals 2 times 4 to the x models the number of guppies he will have after x months. Which graph represents this function?
1 answer:
For this case what we should know is that the function that best adapts to this problem is given by:
y = 2 * (4) ^ x
The graph of the function is shown for two different intervals:
A small interval of -1.5 to 0.5
A larger interval of -6.5 to 6.5.
In both intervals the exponential growth of the function is demonstrated.

recall d = rt, distance = rate * time.
let's say airplane A is going at a rate of "r", therefore airplane B is moving faster, at a rate of "r + 80".
now, after 3 hours, both planes have been travelling for 3 hours each, and say if A has covered "d" miles, then B has covered the slack of 2490 - d.
