5 0

Answer: 100%

Step-by-step explanation

Let the number be 100

Add 25% to it :- 100+25% of 100 i.e., 100+25= 125

Subtract 20% of the resultant from it :- 125-20% of 125 i.e., 125-25= 100

The answer is 100%

What are the domain and range of an exponential parent function? Help please

a_sh-v [17]

The domain and the range of an exponential parent function, that is, y = eˣ are equal to all real numbers and non-negative numbers, respectively. (Correct choice: C)

<h3>How to determine the domain and range of an exponential function</h3>

In this problem we should determine what an exponential parent function is. The most common exponential functions have the following form:

$y = A\cdot e^{B\cdot x} + C$ (1)

(1) is an exponential parent function for A = 1, B = 1 and C = 0.

All functions are relations with a domain and range, the domain is an input set related to the range, that is, an output set. In the case of an exponential parent function, the domain and the range of the expression are $\mathbb{R}$ and y ≥ 0, respectively. (Correct choice: C)
