Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential growth:
y = future amount
a = initial amount
r = growth rate
x = number of periods
Part A: growth at the rate of doubling each 15 minutes for 274 minutes
Each period is 15 minutes.
a = 37
x = 274/15 = number of periods
r = 100%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exponential decay:
The growth takes place from 9 AM for 274 minutes, or 4 hours and 34 minutes, until 1:34 PM. The decay goes from 1:34 PM to 7 PM, or 5 hours and 26 minutes, or 326 minutes
Part B: decay at the rate of 6% each 24 minutes for 326 minutes
