Answer:

Acceleration and velocity are two different things.  The acceleration is the rate at which the velocity is increasing.  So while the velocity very well may be increasing, the rate (acceleration) at which it is, is decreasing.

Explanation:

The curve shows velocity, which is increasing from left to right, except perhaps at the very end, where it appears to be constant.

The question asks about acceleration, which is the derivative of velocity. On a graph like this, acceleration is <em>the slope of the velocity curve</em>.

The slope starts out steep (very much positive) and ends up flat (very near zero). Hence the slope (acceleration) is <em>decreasing</em>.

_____

An exponential function is concave upward (when it is above the horizontal asymptote). This function is concave downward. It is <em>not an exponential growth function</em>.

An exponential decay function can look like this if it is vertically shifted upward. This one comes to what looks like zero slope, which an exponential function never does.

What is 25.5n - 3 = 5.5n + 10.
klemol [59]
N = 13/20 or 0.65

25.5n - 3 = 5.5n + 10

Add 3 to both sides of the equation.

25.5n = 5.5n + 13

Subtract 5.5n from both sides.

20n = 13

Divide both sides by 20.

n = 13/20 or 0.65

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

91%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the increase

= 1635-858

= 777

Therefore the percent increase can be calculated as follows

= 777/858 × 100

= 0.905× 100

= 90.5 %

= 91%

Hence the percentage increase is 91%
