A shipping company started with 40 employees. The number of employees in the shipping company increases at a rate of 7.5% each year. What function can be used to model the number of employees, f(x), in the shipping company after x years?

The function shown is a(n)​ (a)   function.

This function shows ​ (b)   because the graph is decreasing.

The horizontal asymptote is at ​ (c)  

• exponential

• decay

• y=-1

• linear

• x=-1

• growth

Create the exponential function with the following attributes:

Asymptote: y = 0

Initial value: 3

Point on the graph: (2, 6)
