Hal is asked to write an exponential function to represent the value of a $10,000 investment decreasing at 2% annually. what
multiplicative rate of change should hal use in his function?
0 0.02
o 0.98
1.02
1.98

0.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The investment starts at $10,000.

$10,000 is 100% of the investment.

In the first year, it loses 2% of its value. That means that after 1 year, the value of 100% of $10,000 is decreased by 2% of $10,000.

100% - 2% = 98%

After the first year, the investment is worth 98% of the original value.

98% as a decimal is 0.98

0.98
