The exponential function is defined as y = a(1+r)^x, where "a" represents the original account and "r" the rate of growth or decay.
Then we have the following:
1) 22% grow
y = a( 1 + 22%/100 )^x = a(1.22)^x
So the solution is: 124(1.22)^x
2) 12% decay
y = a( 1 - 12%/100 )^x = a(0.88)^x
So the solution is: y = f(x) = 44(0.88)^x
3) 20% decay
y = a( 1 - 20%/100 )^x = a(0.8)^x
So the solution is: f(x) = 22(0.8)
4) 12% Groth
y = a( 1 + 12%/100 )^x = a(1.12)^x
So the solution is: f(x) = 42(1.12)^x
1 7/24 is the correct answer I will show you how to get it if needed.
Answer:
Add 7 to both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
You would need to add 7 to both sides to cancel out the 7 on the right side of the equation to get x one step closer to being by itself.
Then you would get 4x = -8.
Next divide by 4 on both sides to get x by itself so do the inverse operation of what 4 was doing to x.
x = -2
Polynomial with real coefficients always has even number of complex roots. We know that one of them is 2 + 5i so the second one will be 2 - 5i and:
