Question

Graph f(x) = 28(1.16). What is the constant percent rate of change of f(x) with respect to x? Does the graph represent growth or decay?

O 16% decay
O 16% growth
O 84% growth
O 84% decay

Answer 1

The constant percent rate of change of f(x) with respect to x is O 16% growth

How to determine the constant percent rate of change

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

f(x) = 28(1.16)ˣ

The constant percent rate of change of f(x) with respect to x is 16%.

This means that for every 1% increase in x, there is a 16% increase in f(x). The graph represents exponential growth.

This is because the base of the exponent (1.16) is greater than 1.
