Match the terms with the definitions.
1. y = 1.7 (1.06)x
2. y = 1.7 (0.93)x
3. y = 250 (1.08)x
4. y

Answer by MathLover1(20849) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
recall:
Growth:
where is rate
Decay:
you have:
1. -> means growth, -> and is growth rate of %
so, this one matches a. rate of growth %
2. -> means decay, -> and is decay rate of %
this one matches b. rate of decay %
3. -> means growth, and is growth rate of %
so, this one matches
c. Rate of growth %
4. -> means decay, -> and is decay rate of %
this one matches
d. Rate of decay %

They match up the way they are listed...
1a, 2b, 3c, 4d
If you look at the factor that each 1.7 or 250 gets multiplied by you can see that the numbers either grow or decay...
I'm thinking the x's should be exponents, corresponding to the years of growth...
For example, look at #3...
tells me that the 250 grows .08 or 8% more than once each year...
