If an exponential curve intersects the y- axis at 10 and has a growth rate of 1.6, what is the equation of exponential function?

Explanation:

The general formula for an exponential function is:

with "a" the initial value and "r" the growth rate.

We are given the value at time 0:

Therefore the initial value is 10 yielding the answer above.

(there is a slight chance that your teacher defines "growth rate" not as the "r" as in (1+r) but as the entire "(1+r)" in which case you should replace 2.6 by 1.6.

step-by-step explanation:

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
