Question

Hi I am really confused on this problem and would like help on solving it step by step on the first question

Answer 1

When given an exponential function that is proportional to itself then its form is the following:

`G(t)=G_0e^(kt)`

Where:

`\begin{gathered} G_0=\text{ initial value of ''G''} \\ k=\text{ constant of proportionality} \end{gathered}`

The proportionality constant is equal to the growth factor. Therefore, the growth factor is 0.6.

Since the growth factor is between 0 and 1 this means that the function exhibits exponential decay.
