A colony of spiders has a population of 350. The population is decreasing at a rate of 3% per year. Write an exponential decay function for the quarterly decay rate. What does the y-intercept of its graph mean in this context? Round values to the nearest thousandth. function: The y-intercept is the
at time

Step-by-step explanation:

350 decreasing at 3% per year

the function is

y = mx + c

m is the gradiant (change)

c is the y-intercept (when x = 0)

first m

it is decreasing by 3 %

3% as a decimal = 0.03

m = -0.03

c is

at the start

we start with 350

c = 350

put back into the equation

y = ?x + ?
