Answer:

a. 80%

b. £34

c. £340

Step-by-step explanation:

a. We are given that Mrs Trent spent 20% of her weekly wage on food. This means she would have 80% of her weekly wage left with her.

b. 10% of Mrs Trent weekly wage:

If 20% = £68

10% = (10*68)/20 = £34

c. Let x represent weekly wage of Mrs Trent

Given that she spends £68 of x (weekly wage) on food, which is 20% of x.

This means that, 20% of x = £68

Let's find her weekly wage, x:

\frac{20}{100} * x = 68

0.2x = 68

Divide both sides by 0.2

x = 340

Her weekly wage is £340.

Given an exponential function for compounding interest, A(x) = P(.95)x, what is the rate of change?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Option 3

The rate of change is -5%                

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An exponential function for compounding interest, A(x) = P(.95)^x

To find : What is the rate of change?

Solution :

The general form of an exponential function is:

f(x) = a(1+r)^x

Where, a is the initial amount,

(1+r) is the rate of change,

r is the growth or decay factor

We have given, A(x) = P(.95)^x

Rate of change is

1+r=0.95

r=0.95-1

r=-0.05

Convert to percent,

r=-0.05\times 100=-5\%

Therefore, Option 3 is correct.
