Hello! Could y’all please explain why this is Decay and not growth?

Mathematics
1 answer:
svetlana [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

This is an Exponential Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1200(0.85)⁶

The above expression is an Exponential Decay because 0.85 is less than 1

The formula for Exponential Decay

= y = a (1 - r)^t

We equate both equation together

Where

a = 1200

1 - r = 0.85

t = 6

Solving for r

1 - r = 0.85

r = 1 - 0.85

r = 0.15

Converting to Percentage

r = 15% decay rate

Ashley is choosing a popsicle from the freezer at random the probability of her picking a grape popsicle is 3/8 the probability
netineya [11]

If an experiment has N possible outputs, each with probability

P_1,\ P_2,\ldots,\ P_N

then the sum of all probabilities is always one:

P_1 + P_2 + \ldots + P_N=1

So, in your case, you have

P(\text{grape}) + P(\text{cherry}) + P(\text{orange}) = 1

plugging in the given values:

\dfrac{3}{8} + \dfrac{1}{3} + P(\text{orange}) = 1 \iff \dfrac{17}{24} + P(\text{orange}) = 1

we can deduce that

P(\text{orange}) = 1-\dfrac{17}{24} = \dfrac{7}{24}
