Question

16. What is the rate of decay, r (expressed as a decimal), for data best modeled by the exponential function y=63.4(0.92)^x?

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of decay is 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=63.4(0.92)^{x}$

Let

r-----> the rate of decay

we know that

In this problem

$(1-r)=0.92$

Solve for r

$r=1-0.92=0.08$
