Given the following exponential function, identify whether the change represents growth or decay, and determine the percentage rate of increase or decrease. y=590(1.061)^x
y=590(1.061)
x

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.

It will be a whole number.

The answer is 9.7 cm
