pretty much about the same as before.
a = weight of a large box
b = weight of a small box.
we know their combined weight is 65 lbs, thus a + b = 65.
we also know that the truck has 60 large ones, and 55 small ones, thus 60*a is the total weight for the large ones and 55*b is the total weight for the small ones, and we know that is a total of 3775, 60a + 55b = 3775.
Consider the missing part of the question is "Select the correct statement.
A. The number of employees is increasing by 50% every year.
B. The number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.
C. The number of employees is decreasing by 90% every year.
D. The number of employees is increasing by 90% every year."
Given:
The function is:
Where, f(t) is the number of employees working at a company, in thousands and t is the number of years since the company revised the benefits package.
To find:
The correct statement from the given options.
Solution:
The general exponential decay model is:
...(i)
Where, a is the initial value, r is the rate of decay and t is the number of years.
We have,
It can be written as
...(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get
The initial value is 1.5 and the rate of decay is 0.10 or 10%. It means the number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
