Answer: 2/3 of an hour.

Step-by-step explanation: The constant rate of the lifeguard filling the pool is 1/3 of the pool every 1/2 hour. If she fills it for an hour, she'll get 2/3 of the pool filled. Therefore, it'll take the lifeguard 1 hour to fill the pool 2/3 of the way.

Hope this helps! :)

Which is the initial value that shrinks an exponential growth function by 50%?

ValentinkaMS [17]

Suppose that the exponential growth function is y = 4^x.

If x = 1, then y = 4^1 = 4.
If x = 3, then y = 4^3 = 64.

Let the initial value be 1/2.

The growth function is now y = 1/2 * 4^x.

If x =1, then y = 2 which is half of the y value before adding the 1/2.

If x = 3, then y = 1/2 * 64 = 32.

Answer: 1/2
