A function in which the dependent variable decreases by the same factor over each unit of time

VARVARA [1.3K]2 years ago
5 0

A quantity X follows an exponential decay (decrease) if it decreases at a rate proportional to its current value. This can be written as

X(t) = X_0 e^{-at}

with t being the time (can be continuous or discrete steps), and "a" being a rate of decay (the larger "a" the faster the decay). X0 is an initial (at time 0) value of the quatity X. Exponential decay is seen frequently in nature (radioactivity, chemical reactions) and economics.

D (t)=16t□2+96t+112 where t represents time in seconds
Luda [366]
A.
the starting point is where t=0
d(0)=-16(0)^2+96(0)+112
D(0)=112
started from 112 feet


b. max height is vertex
for
y=ax^2+bx+c
the x value of the vertex is -b/2a

so
D(t)=-16t^2+96t+112
t value of vertex is -96/(2*-16)=3
it reaches after 3 seconds

C. simpliy evaluate D(t) for t=3
D(3)=-16(3)^2+96(3)+112
D(3)=-16(9)+288+112
D(3)=-144+400
D(3)=256
max height is 256ft

~~~°°Solve 15x+2=17~~~°°
Step2247 [10]
Simple...

you have: 15x+2=17

Isolate the variable (x)-->>>>

15x+2=17
      -2     -2

15x=15

x=1

To check it-->>>

15(1)+2=17

17=17

Thus, your answer.
