Identify the initial amount a and the growth factor b in the exponential function.

Given the equation A (x) = 30 x 8.3 ^x, we can get the initial amount of A when x is equal to zero. Therefore:

A (0) = 30 * 8.3^0

A (0) = 30

In this case the equation grows by 8.3 times as x increases. Therefore the growth factor is 8.3.

Answers:

initial amount = 30

growth factor = 8.3

The answers are not in the given choices. I believe you are giving the wrong equation. If the correct equation here is:

A (x) = 680 x 4.3 ^x 

Then the answers are:

initial amount = 680

growth factor = 4.3

The answers are now in the choices given.

At what values of x does f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 -4x+1 satisfy the mean value theorwm on [0,1]
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

x=1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A function f is given as

f(x) = x^3-2x^2-4x+1 in the interval  [0,1]

This function f being an algebraic polynomial is continuous in the interval [0,1] and also f is differntiable in the open interval (0,1)

Hence mean value theorem applies for f in the given interval

f(1) = 1-2-4+1 = -4\\f(0) = 1

The value

\frac{f(1)-f(0)}{1-0} =\frac{-4-1}{1} =-5

Find derivative for f

f'(x) = 3x^2-4x-4

Equate this to -5 to check mean value theorem

3x^2-4x-4=-5\\3x^2-4x+1=0\\\\(x-1)(3x-1) =0\\x= 1/3 : x = 1

We find that 1/3 lies inside the interval (0,1)

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

(-4,16)

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+18=5/2+26

1/2x=5/2x+8

-2=8 divided by -2

Equals x=-4

Plug in -4 in one of the equations

1/2(-4)=18= 16
