The Right expression is:
x-3x10-13
The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:
if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.
Now we need to classify each of the functions:
1.
The function
can be wrtten as:
comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.
2.
The function
can be written as:
comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.
3.
The function
comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.
Is there a question that goes with this command?
First, convert those inches to feet.
7in =ish 0.5833333
(you find this by dividing 7/12 on a calculator)
Now you just square 9.583333333
9.583333333^2
9.583333333 * 9.583333333
91.84027777ish
Rounded to the nearest foot, means the answer is 92ft.
