100 it's like the absolute value
Step-by-step explanation:
When the slope of the function is positive, it is increasing
when the slope of the function is negative, it is decreasing
just like with the line function y = mx + b
so if you put a line tangent to the function at every point the slope of the line will indicate a increasing or decreasing point of the function
also beware where the slope is zero it is not increasing or decreasing
there are two intervals of increasing, one interval of decreasing and two point of zero slope or neither increasing or decreasing
increasing interval 1) x < -2 2) x > 1.5
decreasing interval 1) -2 < x < 1.5
at -2 and 1.5 the slope is zero
Answer:
I guess that you want to calculate the difference between the annual healt care costs in 1950 and today.
The equation is:
C(x) = $620*(1.082)^x
in 1950, we have x = 0 (because is the initial year)
then the cost is:
C(0) = $620*1 = $620.
Now, today, in 2020, we have:
x = 2020 - 1950 = 70
then we have:
C(70) = $620*(1.082)^70 = $154,276.7
So, according to this equation, te difference is:
$154,276.7 - $620 = $153,656.6
