Answer

The multiplicative rate of change that should be in Hal’s function = 49/50=0.98

                                                                                                                  =9.8×10⁻¹

Explanation

The investment of $10,000 decreases by 2% every year. So the following year is usually (100 - 2)=98% of the previous year. This is a geometric progression.

In this case the first term = 10000

The second term = 98% × 10000 = 9800.

The common ratio = 9800/10000=49/50

The multiplicative rate of change that should be in Hal’s function = 49/50=0.98.

The equation of the exponential rate would be;

10,000ₓ0.98ⁿ.

where n is the number years.

Hope his helps! ;)

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 5x = −2?
adoni [48]
X^2 + 5x = -2
x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0

x = -b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
a = 1, b = 5, and c = 2

x = -5 (+-) sqrt (5^2 - 4(1)(2)) / 2(1)
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (25 - 8) / 2
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (17) / 2

answer is : negative 5 plus or minus the square root of 17 divided by 2
