Answer:
1. The growth rate is 2
2. The sample is losing half its mass, so the decay factor is 1/2 or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth and decay factor in an exponential function is the number that is being multiplied to the power of x
- It is a growth rate when that number is greater than 1
- It is a decay rate when the number is less than 1
- If it's 1 then it's not growing or decaying
- If it's 0 you will have an answer of 0
The given scale for the map means that a distance of 1 cm between two locations on the map corresponds to a real distance between them of 600,000 cm = 6 km.
So, if the distance between two places in reality is 87 km, on the map this would be represented by a distance of 14.5 cm, since
87 = 84 + 3
87 = 6 • 14 + 6 • (1/2)
87 = 6 • (14 + 1/2)
Answer:
