Which function represents exponential decay?

Mathematics
1 answer:
geniusboy [140]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for an exponential function y=a(r)^x where r is less than 1.

a works because it is in the form y=a(r)^x where r is less than 1.

b is in the form y=a(r)^x but r is more than 1.

c. and d. are not even exponential functions.

c. is a polynomial

d. is a constant polynomial (no variable)

Let x = depth of the gutter
then
18 - 2x = width of the gutter

Axis of symmetry will give x value for max area:

x = -b/(2a)
x = -18/(2x(-2))

x = 4.5 inches is the depth for max area

\bf D(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad N(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{10}) \\\\\\ DN=\sqrt{(-3-6)^2+(10+1)^2}\implies DN=\sqrt{202}


now that we know how long each one is, let's plug those in Heron's Area formula.

OLga [1]

Answer:  

x    y-values

1    175

2   175

3   225

4    275

The domain is 1,2,3,4  it would be from 1 to 4 if the electrician bills for partial hours, or greater than 4, but this is not in the chart.

The range is 175,225,275.  Again there could be other values in between or greater than 275, but it is not in the chart.

Step-by-step explanation:  It is a function because for each x-value there is only one y-value, even if the y-value is the same for two of the x-valus
