Answer:
Option B) The height, in inches, of a typical apple tree
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> the number of years, after the tree was planted
y ---> the height in inches, of a typical golden delicious apple tree
we have

Remember that
The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
In this problem
The y-intercept is the height of the tree when it was planted (x=0)
I got 1.5, but I could be wrong.

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
2^5/2^3
Hint: | For all exponents, a^n/a^m = a^(n - m). Apply this to 2^5/2^3.
Combine powers. 2^5/2^3 = 2^(5 - 3):
2^(5 - 3)
Hint: | Subtract 3 from 5.
5 - 3 = 2:
2^2
Hint: | Evaluate 2^2.
2^2 = 4:
Answer: 4
Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a exponential function of the form

where
a is the initial value
b is the base
r is the rate
b=1+r
In this problem we have
a=4 ----> initial value (y-intercept)
b=1/2
so
1+r=1/2
r=1/2-1=-1/2
r=-0.5=-50% ----> is negative because is a decrease rate
