Answer:
Growth, with a 9% increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential patterns are usually defined by some kind of <em>repeated multiplication</em>. In most exponential patterns we start with some <em>initial value</em> (let's call it a) and some <em>multiplier</em> (let's call it b), and a is multiplied by b some number x times. We capture this as a function y with the equation
There are three broad categories for this pattern:
- <em>No growth/decay </em>- The function has an initial value that never changes. In order for the initial value to stay constant, we need
, since multiplication by 1 doesn't change the number it's multiplied by. - <em>Growth</em> - The function grows at some exponential rate; for every increase in x, our initial value will be at <em>least</em> as big as it was for smaller values of x, so
in this case. (Example: A bacteria population starts at size 3 and doubles in size every hour; after x hours, there will be
bacteria) - <em>Decay - </em>The function decays or decreases at some exponential rate; for every increase in x it <em>can't be as large</em> as it was for smaller values of x, so
here. (Example: An Instagram post gets an initial wave of 100 new likes, and every hour it gets half the number of likes as the previous hour, so the number of new likes per hour is
.
In the function
,
, so we have exponential <em>growth</em>, but by what percent? Well, for every step in x, we take 1.09 (109%) of the previous value, so that's a 9% increase.
Recall the double angle identity for cosine:

It follows that

Since 0° < 22° < 90°, we know that sin(22°) must be positive, so csc(22°) is also positive. Let x = 22°; then the closest answer would be C,

but the problem is that none of these claims are true; cot(32°) ≠ 4/3, cos(44°) ≠ 5/13, and csc(22°) ≠ √13/2...
Answer:
It is 1, 2, 3, or 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 14 and their difference is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
"2 numbers (x and y)
x+y = 14
and x-y + 10
If you each equation by positive 2, one gets 2x+2y = 28 and 2x-2y = 20
The 'y-terms' cancel out or equal zero when adding, so 4x = 48, divide by 4 on each side and x or the first number equals 12.
Plug 12 back into the equation for 'x' and subtract 12 on both sides so that y=2
The difference of 12-2=10 and the addition of 12 and 2 equals 14"
