Which of the following describes the growth rate of the exponential function in the graph below?
2 answers:
Any exponential function is of the form y= .Here a is any value greater than 0.
In the given graph As x increases,y heads to infinity.As x decreases, y tends to 0 . The points given in the graph has x increasing by 1 unit and y is increasing by a multiple of 3.The 3 represent the a value of the function which is also the scale factor.
Among all the given values option B.)For each x increase of 1, the y increases by a common factor of 3 is the right answer.
Option B.

Answer:
(a) x = 30°
(b) mRS = 30°
mST = 120°
mTU = 120°
mUR = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) In the picture attached, the diagram is shown.
Given that m arc RS = x, from the ratios:
m arc ST = 4x
m arc TU = 4x
m arc UR = 3x
The addition of the four arcs must be equal to 360°, then:
x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360°
12x = 360°
x = 360°/12 = 30°
(b) m arc RS = x = 30°
m arc ST = 4x = 4*30° = 120°
m arc TU = 4x = 4*30° = 120°
m arc UR = 3x = 3*30° = 90°
Answer:
a) 20.16; b) 20.49 and 21.51
Step-by-step explanation:
We use z scores for each of these. The formula for a z score is
.
For part a, we want the 20th percentile; this means we want 20% of the data to be lower than this. We find the value in the cells of the z table that are the closest to 0.20 as we can get; this is 0.2005, which corresponds with a z score of -0.84.
Using this, 21 as the mean and 1 as the standard deviation,
-0.84 = (X-21)/1
-0.84 = X-21
Add 21 to each side:
-0.84+21 = X-21+21
20.16 = X
For part b, we want the middle 39%. This means we want 39/2 = 19.5% above the mean and 19.5% below the mean; this means we want
50-19.5 = 30.5% = 0.305 and
50+19.5 = 69.5% = 0.695.
Looking these values up in the cells of the z table, we find those exact values; 0.305 corresponds with z = -0.51 and 0.695 corresponds with z = 0.51:
-0.51 = (X-21)/1
-0.51 = X-21
Add 21 to each side:
-0.51+21 = X-21+21
20.49 = X
0.51 = (X-21)/1
0.51 = X-21
Add 21 to each side:
0.51+21 = X-21+21
21.51 = X
