Given:

The graph of an exponential function.

To find:

The exponential growth factor as x increases by 1 unit.

Solution:

From the given graph, it is clear that the exponential function passes through the points (1,1) and (3,9). So, the equation of the exponential must must be satisfy by these points.

The general exponential function is:

y=ab^x                 ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

Putting x=1,y=1 in (i), we get

1=ab^1                  ...(ii)

Putting x=3,y=9 in (i), we get

9=ab^3                  ...(iii)

Divide (iii) by (ii).

\dfrac{9}{1}=\dfrac{ab^3}{ab}

9=b^2

3=b

b is the the growth factor and the value of b is 3.

Therefore, the exponential growth factor is 3 as x increases by 1 unit.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

34000cm or 340m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find total surface area.

dimensions of 1 wooden box =

l = 1m = 100cm

b = 80cm

h = 25cm

∴ In the case of 2 =

l = 100cm

b= 80cm

h  = 25 + 25 = 50cm

T.S.A = 2(lb + lh + bh)

= 2(100*80 + 100*50+ 80*50)

= 2(8000+5000+4000)

= 2*17000

= 34000cm

= 340m

At work, Elon takes a break 1/5​​ of each hour he works. He also takes a lunch break for 1/2​​ of an hour each day he works. Elo
Anton [14]

Answer:

h=50\ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h -----> the number of hours, Elon works during one 5​-day work week

we know that

12\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{12*2+1}{2}=\frac{25}{2}\ h

Elon’s break time must be equal to 1/2​​ of an hour multiplied by 5 days plus  1/5​​ multiplied by the total hours h

so

\frac{25}{2}=5(\frac{1}{2})+\frac{1}{5}h

Solve for h

Multiply by 10 both sides to remove the fraction

125=25+2h

2h=125-25

2h=100

h=50\ hours
