Unit 9 Review

For the functions f(x) = x⁶ and g(x) = 5^x which graph will increase faster as you move to the right?

• f(x), because 6 > 5

• f(x), because the base is increasing

• g(x), because the exponent is increasing

• They both will be equal because they both go to infinity

There are currently 800 bacteria in a petri dish. If the population of the bacteria in the dish triples every 4 hours, write the expression, f(n), that represents the number of bacteria n hours from now?

• f(n) = 800 x 3n

• f(n) = 800 x 3(n/4)

• f(n) = 800 x 3ⁿ

• f(n) = 800 x 3^(n/4)

A company commits to reducing its petroleum fuel use by 20% each year from the preceding year. If the company used 18,000 gallons of fuel in the year prior to starting the program, write a formula, f(n), that represents the fuel used during year n of the program?

• f(n) = 18,000^0.8n

• f(n) = 18,000(0.8)ⁿ

• f(n) = 18,000 - 0.8ⁿ

• f(n) = (18,000 ⋅ 0.8)ⁿ

Mrs. Anderson is saving to buy a car that costs $15,000. She has already saved $4,000 and decides to put all of this money into a new savings account. The money in this account will earn 5% interest, which is compounded monthly. Write the model that would be appropriate to determine how many years, y, Mrs. Anderson will have to wait until she has earned enough money in this account to buy the car?

• 15,000 = 4,000(1.05/12)^12y

• 4,000 = 15,000(1.05/12)^y

• 15,000 = 4,000(1 + 0.05/12)^12y

• 4,000 = 15,000(1 + 0.05/12)^12y

• 2.05 grams

• 1.8 grams

• 11.43 grams

• 8.5 grams
