Note that a decay has a rate between 0 and 1, and a growth as a rate of 1 or higher.
y = 1/2(1 + 0.03)^t → y = 1/2(1.03)^t (Rate is more then 0) GROWTH
y = 0.3(0.95)^t → (Rate is between 0 and 1) DECAY
y = ((1+0.03)^1/2)^2t → y = y = 1.014^2t (Rate is more then 0) GROWTH
y = 200(0.73)^t → (Rate is between 0 and 1) DECAY
y = 4(1/4)^t → (Rate is between 0 and 1) DECAY

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
Answer:
8x-16y
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that when multiplying fractions, we multiply both the numerator and denominator.
so, in 4/9 • 4/5,
4•4 = 16, and
9•5 = 45
so, 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45.
now, we’ll look for the Least Common Factor
factors are numbers that you can multiply together to = another number.
the LEAST common Factor is the # that is smallest that you can divide both numbers by, in an equation and get a whole number.
for instance, 3•3 and 1•9 are the only ways to get 9, so, the factors are 1, 3, 9
let’s look for the LCF in 16 and 45. -
if we find the ways to get 16, we have:
1•16, 2•8, and 4•4
so, the factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
this is called FACTORING :)
the ways to get 45 are...
1•45, 3•15, and 5•9, so the FACTORS are
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, & 45.
- compare the factors of 16 & 45,
none of them are the same besides 1, and we know that dividing these numbers by 1 will not do anything.
because of this, we can not reduce 16/45, so the reduced answer to 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45
