Write an equation that models the following situation:
Samantha's hair was known to grow very rapidly. It began at a length of 6 in and grew at a rate of 14% a week.

• y = 6(0.14)^x

• y = 6(1 + 14)^x

• y = 6(1.14)^x

• y = 6(0.86)^x

Sim City currently has 100,000 people and the population is decreasing 5.6%.

Which equations represent this scenario? Select all that apply.

• $y=100,000\left(1-5.6\right)^x$

• $y=100,000\left(1-0.56\right)^x$

• $y=100,000\left(1-0.056\right)^x$

• $y=100,000\left(0.944\right)^x$

• $f\left(t\right)=100,000\left(0.944\right)^t$

Write the equation for the following situation:
You buy a car for $26,500.  The car depreciates in value by 20% a year.  

• A = 26500(1+0.2)^t

  A = 26500(1.2)^t

• A = 26500(1+0.8)^t

  A = 26500(1.8)^t

• A = 26500(1-0.2)^t

  A = 26500(0.8)^t

• A = 26500(1-0.02)^t

  A = 26500(0.98)^t

• y = 50000(1.06)^x

• y = 50000(6)^x

• y = 6(50000)^x

A laser beam with an output of 6 milliwatts is focused at a series of mirrors. The laser

beam loses 2% of its power every time it reflects off of a mirror. The power p (n) is an

exponential function of the number of reflections in the form of p (n) = ab n . Write the

equation p (n) for this laser beam. Determined the values of a and b. Copy and replace the letter with the right number or letter. LEAVE the spacing it will mark it wrong and it will stay WRONG.

p (n) = a (b) ^ x
