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! ;)

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.<br><br> ? cm
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The value is 50.6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this , set up a proportion. Use the smaller part of the triangle on top, and the corresponding part of the larger on bottom.

32.2/46.2 = x/72.6

Now cross multiply to solve

72.6*32.2 = 46.2*x

2337.72 = 46.2x

50.6 = x
