Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that our original exponential formula was y = a b x. You will notice that in these new growth and decay functions, the b value (growth factor) has been replaced either by (1 + r) or by (1 - r). The growth "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 + r.
An exponential function of a^x (a>0) is always ln(a)*a^x, as a^x can be rewritten in e^(ln(a)*x). By deriving, the term (ln(a)) gets multiplied with a^x. The derivative shows, that the rate of change is similiar to the function itself. For 0<a<1, ln(a) becomes negative and so is the rate of change.
Linear models are used when a phenomenon is changing at a constant rate, and exponential models are used when a phenomenon is changing in a way that is quick at first, then more slowly, or slow at first and then more quickly.
Answer:
If your rounding up, its 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The advantage is that you can visibly see the difference in the data. Disadvantage of line plots would be that not as appealing.
Answer:
A. 3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number equal x.
Set up the first half of the equation.
The sum of three times the number and 8 more than the number can be written as:
3x + (x+8)
Sum means that you add the components.
Set up the second half of the equation.
The difference between -22 and twice the number can be written as:
-22 - 2x
Difference means subtraction, and because -22 is written first, that is the number that you subtract <em>from</em>.
If you set the halves of the equation equal, you get:
3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x
Therefore, the answer is A.
