Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms that don't contain x to the right side and solve.
I've actually just learned this. We would set up the proportion as X/9=36/X so after we cross multiply we get x^2=324. Then we find the square root of both sides to simplify. And using my calculator the square root of x^2 is just x. And the square root of 324 is 18. So the final answer is x=18 or the geometric mean is 18.
Answer:
Exponential function: a*b^x
if B is less than 1, it is a decay function
if B is more than 1, then it is a growth function
if B is 0, then the function neither decreases nor increases
Example 1: 100*0.14^x
The y-intercept is decreasing by 86%
Example 2: 3000*1.14^x
The y-intercept is increasing by 14%
Example 3: 400*0
The y-intercept is neither decreasing nor increasing
Going back to the function, <u>a</u> is the y-intercept, and <u>b</u> is the rate
<u>I hope this will help you, I just started to learn about exponential functions..</u>
