Which is a stretch of an exponential growth function? f(x) = Two-thirds (two-thirds) Superscript x f(x) = Three-halves (two-thir

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

f(x) = Three-halves (three-halves) Superscript x

f(x) = Two-thirds (three-halves) Superscript x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a function in the form of $f(x) = ab^x$

Where, a and b are any constant,

is called exponential function,

There are two types of exponential function,

Growth function : If b > 1,

Decay function : if 0 < b < 1,

Since, In

$f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{2}{3})^x$

$\frac{2}{3} < 1$

Thus, it is a decay function.

in $f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{2}{3})^x$

$\frac{2}{3} < 1$

Thus, it is a decay function.

in $f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{3}{2})^x$

$\frac{3}{2} > 1$

Thus, it is a growth function.

in $f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^x$

$\frac{3}{2} > 1$

Thus, it is a growth function.

Steve likes to entertain friends at parties with "wire tricks." Suppose he takes a piece of wire 60 inches long and cuts it into

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a) the length of the wire for the circle = $(\frac{60\pi }{\pi+4}) in$

b)the length of the wire for the square = $(\frac{240}{\pi+4}) in$

c) the smallest possible area = 126.02 in² into two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

If one piece of wire for the square is y; and another piece of wire for circle is (60-y).

Then; we can say; let the side of the square be b

so 4(b)=y

b= $\frac{y}{4}$

Area of the square which is L² can now be said to be;

$A_S=(\frac{y}{4})^2 = \frac{y^2}{16}$

On the otherhand; let the radius (r) of the circle be;

2πr = 60-y

$r = \frac{60-y}{2\pi }$

Area of the circle which is πr² can now be;

$A_C= \pi (\frac{60-y}{2\pi } )^2$

$=( \frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

Total Area (A);

A = $A_S+A_C$

= $\frac{y^2}{16} +(\frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

For the smallest possible area; $\frac{dA}{dy}=0$

∴ $\frac{2y}{16}+\frac{2(60-y)(-1)}{4\pi}=0$

If we divide through with (2) and each entity move to the opposite side; we have:

$\frac{y}{18}=\frac{(60-y)}{2\pi}$

By cross multiplying; we have:

2πy = 480 - 8y

collect like terms

(2π + 8) y = 480

which can be reduced to (π + 4)y = 240 by dividing through with 2

$y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$

∴ since $y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$ , we can determine for the length of the circle ;

60-y can now be;

= $60-\frac{240}{\pi+4}$

= $\frac{(\pi+4)*60-240}{\pi+40}$

= $\frac{60\pi+240-240}{\pi+4}$

= $(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+4})in$

also, the length of wire for the square (y) ; $y= (\frac{240}{\pi+4})in$

The smallest possible area (A) = $\frac{1}{16} (\frac{240}{\pi+4})^2+(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+y})^2(\frac{1}{4\pi})$

= 126.0223095 in²

≅ 126.02 in² ( to two decimal places)

The basketballs Noah packed had two different prices. Of the total number of basketballs sold, 60% had a price that was $21 more

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

$(8967/n + 8.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

0.4nx + 0.6n(x+21) = 8967

nx + 12.6n = 8967

x = 8967/n - 12.6

x+21 = 8967/n + 8.4

Where n is the no. of balls

Example: if total balls were 300

n = 300

More expensive one would cost:

8967/300 + 8.4 = $38.29
