Answer:
Keep the exact order that is shown
Step-by-step explanation:
The first exponential already has a point at (1, -2) which means the y-intercept would be less than -2, which is the lowest among the three
The second has a y-int at -2
Third has y-int at 2
Answer:
The initial value is 900
It is experiencing exponential growth by 27%
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential functions are in the form 
, where a is the initial value, b is the multiplier, and x is the input, such as how many years past a certain date.
Exponential growth is when the multiplier is above 1.00, or above 100%, because b is determined by 1 + r if you have exponential growth, or 1 - r if you have exponential decay. You will never use negatives with exponential decay.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say R is the initial radius of the sphere, and r is the radius at time t.
The volume of the sphere at time t is:
V = 4/3 π r³
Taking derivative with respect to radius:
dV/dr = 4π r²
This is a maximum when r is a maximum, which is when r = R.
(dV/dr)max = 4π R²
This is 4 times the sphere's initial great circle area, but not the great circle circumference. The problem statement contains an error.
