Answer: f(x) = 1,024(0.50)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply a decreasing rate formula:

f(x)= P (1 - r) ^x

Where:  

p = original number of players

r = decreasing rate (decimal form, since half of the players are eliminated the percent decrease is 50%)

x = rounds  

f(x) = number of players after x rounds

Replacing with the values given:

f(x) = 1,024(1-50/100)^x

f(x) = 1,024(1-0.5)^x

f(x) = 1,024(0.5)^x

Which of the following is the graph of y = sin(0.5x)? <br><br><br>D. Edge 2021 :)​
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

You did not include the graphs, but I can explain how the graph is and so you can recognize it.

1) for x = 0, y = sin(0) = 0, so the  origin (0,0) is part of the graph.

2) The range of the function is the interval [-1, 1]. This is, y is from -1 to 1, and the graph oscilates (is a wave) between those minimum and maximum.

3) The periodicity, P, of the function is such that 0.5P = 2π = > P = 4π

That means that the values repeat every 4π interval (which is the same that 720°)

4) The zeroes of the function are 2π * n, where n is any whole number (negative, zero or positive).

That means that the function crosses the x-axis at

..., -6π, -4π, 2π, 0, 2π, 4π , 6π, ...

5) It is an odd function (which means that f(x) = sin(0.5x) = - f(-x) = - sin(-0.5x).

Now you have plenty information to identify the graph.

I also include a graph of the function in the attached pdf file.
