Answer:

Rate of Decay = 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The decay formula is:

F=P(1-r)^t

Where F is the final value (here, it is given as "Y")

P is the initial value (here, given as 20,000)

r is the rate of decay (what we need to find)

t is the time (given as 2)

Comparing both the equations:

F=P(1-r)^t\\Y=20,000(0.92)^2

We see that:

1 - r  =0.92

We solve for "r":

1 - 0.92 = r

0.08 = r

The rate of decay is 0.08, as a percentage, we need to multiply by 100, so we have:

0.08 * 100 = 8%

Rate of Decay = 8%

Answer:

Function 1: None of the Above

Function 2: Quadratic

Function 3: Linear

Step-by-step explanation:

Function 1: It isn't linear because the y-axis doesn't go up or down at a constant rate, it isn't quadratic because it doesn't have a vertex, and it isn't exponential because it doesn't continue going up.

Function 2: It has a vertex-(6,32)

Function 3: The y-axis goes up at a constant rate of 6.

Consider the graph of the expotential function y= 3(2)^x
victus00 [196]

Answer:

<h2>y-intercept = 3</h2><h2>x-intercept - not exist</h2><h2>the graph is increasing</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function:

f(x)=b(a)^x

has y-intercept for x = 0

hasn't x-intercept

if a > 1, then is increasing

if 0 < a < 1, then is decreasing

We have

y=3(2)^x

a = 2 >1 - increasing

for x = 0:

y=3(2)^0=3(1)=3
