Exponential Growth & Decay

What is the formula for exponential decay

• A=P(1+r)^t
• I=PRT
• A=P(1+r/n)^tn
• A=P(1-r)^t

You invested $400 into an account with 7.5% interest rate compounded monthly. Which equation can be used to calculate how much you will have in 7 years? 

• A=7.5(1+400)^7
• A=400(1+7.5)^7
• A=400(1+.075/12)^7.5(12)
• A=400(1+7.5/12)^12(7)

You have a job with a starting salary of $50,000. According to your contract you will receive a 1.5% raise every year and want to find out how much you will have in 6 years.
What part of the equation would change if you received a 1.5% raise every month?

• t
• n
• r
• P

A car tire fully inflated is losing 2.5% of its air everyday. The tire originally contained 4500 cubic inches of air. Which equation could be used to represent the loss of air

• A=4500(1+2.5)^t
• A=4500(1+.025)^t
• A=4500(1-.025)^t
• A=4500(1-2.5)^t
