Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function is of the form

where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay rate. Our initial value is 64. That's easy to plug in. It goes in for a. So the first choice is out. Considering b now...
If the rate is decreasing at .5% per week, this means it still retains a rate of
100% - .5% = 99.5%
which is .995 in decimal form.
b is a rate of decay when it is greater than 0 but less than 1; b is a growth rate when it is greater than 1. .995 is less than 1 so it is a rate of decay. The exponential function is, in terms of t,

That is technically impossible but I can put this into a mixed fraction which is -5 1/4
Q6.
The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have: slope m = 3, y-intercept (0, 4) → b= 4
<h3>Answer: y = 3x + 4</h3>
Q7.
2x + 4y = 4 |subtract 2x from both sides
4y = -2x + 4 |divide both sides by 4
y = -0.5x + 1
Only second graph has y-intercept = 1.
<h3>Answer: The second graph.</h3>
Q8.
The point-slope form:

We have

Substitute:

<h3>Answer: The first equation.</h3>
Q9.
It's a vertical line. The equation of a vertical line is x = <em>a</em>, where <em>a</em> is any real number.
