Write an equation that models the following situation:

The current student count at John Jay is 6500, it is expected to grow at a rate of 14% next year.

• y= 6500(1+.14)^x

• y= 6500(1-.14)^x

• y= 6500(14)^x

• y= 14(6500)^x

What does the y-intercept of the graph represent?

• The amount of grams the material is gaining.

• The amount of grams the material is losing.

• The amount of grams remaining after so many years.

• The initial amount of grams.

What is the equation of the graph shown, and what is the y-intercept?

• y = 1⁄3 (3)^x ; a = 1⁄3

• y = 1⁄3 (3)^x ; a = 3

• y = 3 (1/3)^x ; a = 1⁄3

• y = 3 (1/3)^x ; a = 3

Given y=3^x determine the y-intercept

• 1

• 3

• 0

• y

A new savings account is opened with $400 and gains 3% every year. What is the exponential function?

• f(x)=400(1+3)^x

• f(x)=400(1-0.03)^x

• f(x)=400(1+0.03)^x

• f(x)=400(0.03)^x
