For this case, the first thing we are going to do is rewrite the function.
We have then:
h (x) = 505.5 + 8 * exp (-0.9 * x)
We evaluate the value of x = 5 in the function.
We have then:
h (5) = 505.5 + 8 * exp (-0.9 * 5)
h (5) = 505.588872
round to the nearest tenth:
h (5) = 505.6
Answer:
the value of h (5) is:
h (5) = 505.6
