Keep in mind "%" or "Percent" means "Per Cent", or "Per hundred". "8 percent" would be "8 per hundred". This would, of course be 8/100. When converting a percentage to a fraction, just place the percentage over a 100, because percent just mean per hundred.

So 8% = 8/100, which simplified is 2/25.

Answer:

y = (5/4)2^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The function value increases by a factor of 40/10 = 4 when x increases by 2. The function can be written as ...

y = 10·4^((x-3)/2) . . . . . . using point (3, 10) as a reference

This can be simplified to ...
