The original value of a painting is $1400, and the value increases by 9% each year. Write an exponential growth function to model this situation.

• y=1400(1.09)^x

• y=1.09(1400)^x

• y=1400(.91)^x

• y=1.09^x

Mr. Savage has $8,000,000 in his bank account, which accrues 1.932% interest every 3 months. How much money will be in his bank account after 9 years?

A rubber ball dropped on a small surface takes a sequence of bounces. Each bounce is half as high as the preceding one. If the ball is dropped from a height of 64 feet, determine the exponential decay equation to model the situation.
