Question

Given the following equation of an exponential function R = 10.5(0.535) determine the decay rate. a. 0.535% b. 10.5% c. 50% d. 46.5%

Answer 1

dont try B its wrong on edge :(

Explanation:

i just took the text

Answer 2

Correct choice is D

Explanation:

Consider the exponential function
`R=10.5\cdot (0.535)^t.`

The exponential function of exponential decay can be written as

`y=a\cdot (1-r)^x,`

where r is the decay rate.

Note that 1-0.535=0.465. The decimal 0.465 is 46.5% and this percent represents the rate of exponential decay.
