Match the function below with the statement that describes it. a. When the function is rewritten as y = (0.26)', it reveals exponential decay.
b. When the function is rewritten as y = 1.42(0.84)', it reveals exponential decay.
C. When the function is rewritten as y =(1.09)', it reveals exponential growth.
d. The rate of decay of the function is 50%.
e. The rate of growth of the function is 20%.
15. y = (1.18)^t/2
16. y = (0.8)^6t
17. y = (0.84)^t-2
18. y = (1.2)^t
19. y= (1/2)

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
