How does the graph y=3^x compare to the graph y=3^-x
1 answer:
Answer:
Y = 3x^x is a graph that has exponential growth while y = 3^-x has exponential decay.
Y = 3x^x (-∞, 0) and (∞, ∞).
Y = 3x^-x (-∞, ∞) and (∞, 0).
Step-by-step explanation:
The infinity symbols were being used to represent the x and y values of each graph. I will call y = 3^x "graph 1" and y = 3^-x "graph 2".
When graph 1 had positive ∞ for its x value, its y value was reaching towards positive ∞. When its x was reaching for negative ∞, its y was going for 0.
For graph 2, however, when its x was reaching for positive ∞, its x was reaching for 0. When its x was reaching for negative ∞, its y was going for positive ∞.

Somewhere you're given the equation for height as a function of time:
... h(t) = -16t² + v₀·t . . . . . . where v₀ is the initial vertical velocity in ft/s
For v₀ = 224, this becomes
... h(t) = -16t² + 224t
And this can be rewritten in vertex form as
... h(t) = -16(t² + 14t)
... h(t) = -16(t² + 14t +7²) +16·7² . . . . . complete the square (add the square of half the t coefficient inside parentheses; add the opposite of that amount outside parentheses)
... h(t) = -16(t +7)² + 784
The vertex of this downward-opening parabola is (7, 784), so ...
The rocket reaches its maximum height at 7 seconds.
The maximum height of the rocket is 784 feet.
