The function of exponential growth or decay is given as y= a(1 ± r)ˣ. y represents a function of exponential decay with 45%. The correct option is D.
<h3>What is exponential growth or decay function?</h3>
Consider the function:
y= a(1 ± r)ˣ
where m is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.
- If there is plus sign, then there is exponential growth happening by r fraction or 100r %.
- If there is negative sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %.
If we compare the given function with the exponential function, then it can be observed that the value of (1±r) is less than 1, therefore, the function will be of exponential decay.
Now, if the (1-r) is compared with 0.55 given in the function than the value of r will be,
1 - r = 0.55
-r = 0.55 - 1
-r = -0.45
r = 0.45
r = 45%
Hence, y represents a function of exponential decay with 45%.

I'm assuming your allowed to use a calculator for this? That's what I would do.

To go about the fraction, take the whole number and times it by the denominator, then add in the numerator to create a new fraction(a whole one not mixed). Then simply divide the numerator by the denominator.


193 is the new numerator and the new whole fraction is this and dividing it out gives you,

For the third one, just input it into a calculator,
