50 points if you can me ! a student says that the function f(x)-=(1/0.5)^x is an exponential decay function. explain the students error

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(1/0.5)^x

Lets simplify what is in the parentheses

1 / .5 = 2

f(x)=(2)^x

Since 2 > 1

 This function grows

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

step-by-step explanation:

rearrange these functions vertically, with like terms in separate columns:

f(x) = 5x^3 - 2

g(x) =         +1

now subtract, column by column:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3
