Given the equation A (x) = 30 x 8.3 ^x, we can get the
initial amount of A when x is equal to zero. Therefore:
A (0) = 30 * 8.3^0
A (0) = 30
In this case the equation grows by 8.3 times as x increases.
Therefore the growth factor is 8.3.
Answers:
initial amount = 30
growth factor = 8.3
The answers are not in the given choices. I believe you are
giving the wrong equation. If the correct equation here is:
A (x) = 680 x 4.3 ^x
Then the answers are:
initial amount = 680
growth factor = 4.3
The answers are now in the choices given.
You could graph this, but it is simpler in this case to do it mathematically.
Since the x and values are the same (implying undefined slope) you can subtract the smaller y value from the larger y value. 2.5-1.2=1.3.
The graph first represents the provided piecewise function option first is correct.
<h3>What is a piecewise function?</h3>
The graph of a piecewise function contains numerous curve components. It signifies that it has a plethora of definitions based on the value of the input. In other words, a piecewise function behaves differently depending on the input.
We have a piecewise function shown in the picture.



After plotting all the pieces of a function on the coordinate plane we will get a graph the same as shown in the first option.
Thus, the graph first represents the provided piecewise function option first is correct.
