------------------------------------
The given function is:
![g(x) = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=g%28x%29%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2-x%7D)
------------------------------------
Question a:
The y-intercept is g(0), thus:
![g(0) = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-0} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2} = 3 - \frac{8}{16} = 3 - 0.5 = 2.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=g%280%29%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2-0%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%3D%203%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B16%7D%20%3D%203%20-%200.5%20%3D%202.5)
The y-intercept is y = 2.5.
------------------------------------
Question b:
The horizontal asymptote is the limit of the function when x goes to infinity, if it exists.
![\lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} g(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2+\infty} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\infty} = 3 - 8\frac{1^{\infty}}{4^{\infty}} = 3 -0 = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Crightarrow%20-%5Cinfty%7D%20g%28x%29%20%3D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Crightarrow%20-%5Cinfty%7D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2-x%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2%2B%5Cinfty%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cfrac%7B1%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%7D%7B4%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%7D%20%3D%203%20-0%20%3D%203)
--------------------------------------------------
![\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} g(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-\infty} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{-\infty} = 3 - 8\times 4^{\infty} = 3 - \infty = -\infty](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Crightarrow%20%5Cinfty%7D%20g%28x%29%20%3D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Crightarrow%20%5Cinfty%7D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2-x%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B2-%5Cinfty%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%20%3D%203%20-%208%5Ctimes%204%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20%3D%203%20-%20%5Cinfty%20%3D%20-%5Cinfty)
Thus, the horizontal asymptote is x = 3.
--------------------------------------------------
Question c:
The limit of x going to infinity of the function is negative infinity, which means that the function is decreasing.
--------------------------------------------------
Question d:
- Exponential function has no restrictions in the domain, so it is all real values, that is
. - From the limits in item c, the range is:
![(-\infty,3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C3%29)

Answer:
They are 9, 5 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1
h+c=5--------------2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
total lunch items= 5
let hot dogs be h
and cookies be c
cost of hot dogs = $1.10
cost of cookies = $0.75
total cost = $4.55
Step two:
The linear model for the total cost is given as
4.55=1.1h+0.75c---------------1
and the model for the number of items is
h+c=5--------------2
The systems of the equation for the situation is
1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1
h+c=5--------------2
Answer:
25% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
length is 24 inches after the increase and width is 33 inches (i did length as up and down and width as side to side, that's how I always do it but I might be wrong let me know and I can fix it)
the area before it gets increased it 600
after the increase its 792
and 600 is 75.75% of 792
so it would be 25.25% increase
sorry this was so long hope this helps
