Answer:
Rate of Decay = 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
The decay formula is:
Where F is the final value (here, it is given as "Y")
P is the initial value (here, given as 20,000)
r is the rate of decay (what we need to find)
t is the time (given as 2)
Comparing both the equations:
We see that:
1 - r =0.92
We solve for "r":
1 - 0.92 = r
0.08 = r
The rate of decay is 0.08, as a percentage, we need to multiply by 100, so we have:
0.08 * 100 = 8%
Rate of Decay = 8%
Answer:
The last graph
Step-by-step explanation:
We transform functions in the following ways:
- multiplying the function by a number to stretch or shrink it
- multiplying by a negative to flip the orientation of the function
- adding/subtracting a value to the input x to shift it horizontally
- adding/subtracting a value to the output (or outside the function operation) to shift it vertically or horizontally.
Looking at the equation we can see
- Vertically shrunk by 0.5
- Negative leading coefficient to flip the graph's orientation
- Horizontal shift of the vertex of 3 units to the left from (0,-2) to (-3,-2)
- Vertical shift of the vertex of 2 units downward (-3,0) to (-3,-2)
The last graph has vertex (-3,-2) and satisfies the the equation.
