As more and more people get their news online, the subscriptions to the dorchester daily has declined over the past years.
the function s(x)=0.9(.82)^x models the number of subscription in tens of thousands where x represents the number of years since the trend has been observed.
what do the values in the function represent?

Step-by-step explanation:

The function s(x)=0.9(.82)^x models the number of subscription in tens of thousands where x represents the number of years since the trend has been observed.

s(x) represents the number of subscriptions to the Dorchester Daily in a given year.

0.9 in ten thousands represents the initial number of subscriptions to the Dorchester Daily in a given year.

0.82 represents the rate at which the number of number of subscriptions to the Dorchester Daily is declining. The rate in percentage is 100 - 82 = 12% each year.

x represents the number of years since the trend has been observed.

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
