Suppose q=39.2(0.732)^t. give the starting value a, the growth factor b, and the growth rate r if q=a×b^t=a(1+r)^t.

if the number in the parentheses is less than 1, is not growth but Decay, thus a negative rate, or namely is decreasing by that much per cycle.

i leave the calculator work to you.

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet
