Suppose that the exponential growth function is y = 4^x.
If x = 1, then y = 4^1 = 4.
If x = 3, then y = 4^3 = 64.
Let the initial value be 1/2.
The growth function is now y = 1/2 * 4^x.
If x =1, then y = 2 which is half of the y value before adding the 1/2.
If x = 3, then y = 1/2 * 64 = 32.
Answer: 1/2
Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x. So the sentence translates into an equation...
200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16
200 - 2x = 16
Now let's solve for x to find "my age"
First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x
-2x = -184
Divide each side by -2 to isolate x
x = -184/-2
x = 92
I'm 92 years old!

Step-by-step explanation:
To find 60% of people you just multiply .6 with the number you are trying to find 60% of. Like 100. 100 times .6 = 60.
