Answer:
<em>Student 2 is incorrect because he didn't use the formula properly</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function is often used to model natural growing or decaying processes, where the change is proportional to the actual quantity.
An exponential decaying function is expressed as:

Where:
C(t) is the actual value of the function at time t
Co is the initial value of C at t=0
r is the decaying rate, expressed in decimal
The initial value of the item is Co=$1000, the rate of decay is r=40%=0.4, and the time is t=3 years.
Substituting into the formula:


C(3)=$216

Step-by-step explanation:
yes
Answer:
Let's complete the square first.
y = x² + 6x + 3
= (x² + 6x + 9) - 6
= (x + 3)² - 6
Therefore, the vertex is (-3, -6) and since the coefficient of (x + 3)² is positive, the vertex is a minimum.
Answer: 60 degrees!
Step-by-step explanation:
75 - 15 = 60
2.5(12.75x + 24.50) = 188.75
31.875x + 61.25 = 188.75
31.875x = 188.75 - 61.25
31.875x = 127.50
x = 127.50 / 31.875
x = 4....they worked 4 hrs
