f(x)=a(1+r)xf\left(x\right)=a\left(1+r\right)^x

In the exponential growth formula, a positive value for rr means what?

a)

f(x)f\left(x\right) is increasing

b)

f(x)f\left(x\right) is decreasing

c)

The initial value is large

d)

f(x)f\left(x\right) has changed since its initial value

55.

f(x)=a(1+r)xf\left(x\right)=a\left(1+r\right)^x

In the exponential growth formula, a negative value for rr means what?

a)

f(x)f\left(x\right) is increasing

b)

f(x)f\left(x\right) is decreasing

c)

Nothing, because rr  cannot have a negative value

56.

f(x)=a(1+r)xf\left(x\right)=a\left(1+r\right)^x

Which of these BEST explains why a negative value of rr causes f(x)f\left(x\right) to decay?

a)

Taking a negative number to larger powers causes the intial value to decrease.

b)

A negative value of rr means that the quantity (1+r)\left(1+r\right) is less than one, and repeated multiplication by a number less than one causes decay.

c)

Negative values are the opposite of positive values, so if positive rr causes growth, negative should cause decay.

d)

Negative values are the spawn of Satan.
