Answer:

f(x) = 30 • 0.989x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

10 26.8

20 23.9

30 21.3

40 19

50 16.9

60 15.1

Using technology, the exponential model equation obtained by plotting the data is :

y = 30.068(0.989)^x

Based on the general exponential formula :

y = ab^x

y = predicted value

Initial value, a = 30.068

Rate = b = 0.989

The most appropriate model equation from the options given is :

f(x) = 30 • 0.989^x

Which is bigger 0.17 or 0.165
Bogdan [553]
0.17 is bigger because you compare the values of the number in each place. There is no whole number, the tenths place is equal. Then in the hundredths place you have a 6 and a 7. 6<7 so therefore 0.17> 0.165. To help yourself out u can add a 0 at the end to then more easily compare .170 to .165

What are the rate of changes for
astraxan [27]
<span>39 & 16.5 = -22.5
30 & 12.4 = -17.6
28 & 10.4 = -17.6
19 & 10.3 = -8.7
23 & 11.2 = -11.8
if the values are y values you will subtract them from each other to get the numerical value and because they all go from a larger number to a smaller number the rate is a negative. if they were from a smaller value to a larger value teh rates of change would be positive.
