Hi there!

nearest percentage=64%

<em><u>1.Subtract starting value and final value:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>1599-579=1020<em><u /></em>

<em><u>2.Divide it by the starting value:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>1020*1599= 0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u /></em>

<em><u>3.Multiply the term by 100:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u>·</u></em>100= 63.78986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u /></em>

<em><u>4.Round the term:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>63.78986866791744840525328330206378986=64<em><u /></em>

Therefore, the decrease of the total 8 years was 64%.

<em><u /></em>

Answer:

64%

Step-by-step explanation:

579 is a 63.789868667917% decrease of 1599.

Percentage of decrease = |1599 - 579|/1599 = 1020/1599 = 0.63789868667917 = 63.789868667917%

A 2-column table has 4 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 1, 0, 1, 2. The second column is labeled f (x)

The decay factor of the exponential function given in the table is of \frac{2}{3}.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, we have that when x increases by 1, y decreases by a factor of 3, hence the decay rate r is found as follows:

1 - r = \frac{1}{3}

r = 1 - \frac{1}{3}

r = \frac{2}{3}
