Answer:

<em>The function is of an exponential growth type</em>

<em>Rate of change is 240%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Function</u>

The expression of an exponential function is

f(x)=c.a^{bx}

For a,b,c constants.

1.

The function will be of an exponential growth type if, when x increases, f increases. That behavior comes from the combination of the three constants a,b,c. The best approach to find that out is by taking the first derivative

f'(x)=b.c.lna.a^{bx}

Since a^{bx} is always positive, the product of b.c.lna must be positive to make f increasing. For example, if a>1 and both b and c are of the same sign, f increases for all x. If 0<a<1, then, since lna<0, the product b.c must be negative, i.e. both should have different signs

The function is expressed as

f(x)=0.6\ 2.4^x

we can see a>1, b and c are positive, so the function is of an exponential growth type.

2.

Talking about rates change of real functions takes us to the derivative function. We have already seen the derivative is dependent on all three constants and also of the value of x, so it cannot be predicted as a fixed percentage.

Now, if we picture the function as the general term of a sequence, where x can only take natural values, we can say

\displaystyle \frac{0.6(2.4)^{x+1}}{0.6(2.4)^{x}}=2.4

Each term is obtained as the previous term by 2.4. It's accurate to say the rate of change is 240%

For an essay contest, Annika needs to write 400 words with an absolute deviation of less than 10 words. Using w as a variable, w
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The absolute value inequality to represent the situation is presented as follows;

\left | w -400  \right |

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The number of words Annika needs to write = 400 words

The absolute deviation of the number of words Annika needs to write = 10 words

When we let the number of words Annika write = w, we have;

The absolute value inequality given that the absolute deviation of the number of words is 10 is given as follows;

\left | w -400  \right |

Therefore we have;

\left | w -400  \right |  gives the statement, -10 < w - 400 < 10.

What is the equation of the line with an x-intercept of -1 and a y-intercept of 2?
Radda [10]

Answer:

y = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 2) ← coordinates of intercepts

m = \frac{2-0}{0+1} = 2

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2) ⇒ c = 2

y = 2x + 2 ← equation of line
