Answer:

7.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The price of oil decreased from $52 per barrel to $48 per barrel.

We need to find the percentage decrease in the price of oil. It can be calculated as follows :

\%=\dfrac{52-48}{52}\times 100\\\\=7.69\%

or

= 7.7%

So, the percentage decrease in the price of oil is 7.7%.

What is the effect on the graph of the function f(x) = 2^x when f(x) is replaced with f(x − 3)?
mel-nik [20]

Graph of f(x-3) is compressed by a factor of  \frac{1}{8} horizontally of f(x).

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have, the graph of f(x)= 2^{x} , on replacing f(x) by f(x-3) we get:

f(x-3)= 2^{x-3} = \frac{2^{x}}{2^{3}} = \frac{1}{8} 2^{x} = \frac{1}{8} f(x).Below shown are the images for graph of f(x) and f(x-3). Both are functions are exponential , and so having exponential graph but f(x-3) is compressed by a factor of  \frac{1}{8} horizontally . Domain and range of both functions are same i.e. F(x) & f(x-3) domain & range are same , just difference in graph : f(x-3) = \frac{1}{8} f(x).
