(q9) decide if the function is an exponential growth function or exponential decay function, and describe its end behavior using limits. y=0.8^x

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A function in the form   is an exponential function. If

The given function can be written as  , so a > 0 and 0 < b < 1, hence this is exponential decay function.

For end behavior, we take limits from -∞ and from ∞. If we do that we can see that C is the correct answer. Also, looking at the graph explains it. Attached is the graph.

From the graph, as we move towards negative infinity, the graph goes towards positive infinity and as we move towards positive infinity, the graph goes towards 0.

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.
