Question
a) What is the decay factor?
b) What is the percent decrease?
c) Estimate the number of black and white TV's sold in 1999.
Answer:
a. Decay factor = 0.85
b. Percent decrease = 15%
c. 19.363 million TVs were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Solving (a): The decay factor
An exponential function has the form

Where b is:

By comparison:

Solving (b): Percentage decrease:
Percentage decrease P is calculated as follows:

Substitute 0.85 for b


Convert to percentage


Solving (c): TVs sold in 1999
First, we need to determine the value of t for 1999
In 1997, t= 0
In 1998, t= 1
In 1999, t= 2
So, we substitute 2 for t in: 



Hello there,
I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy during this winter season.

We need to use the Quadratic Formula*
, 
Thus, given the problem:

So now we just need to plug them in the Quadratic Formula*
, 
As you can see, it is a mess right now. Therefore, we need to simplify it
, 
Now that's get us to the final solution:
