The price of fuel may increase due to demand and decrease due to overproduction. George is studying the change in the price of two types of fuel, A and B, over time. The price f(x), in dollars, of fuel A after x months is represented by the function below:

f(x) = 2.27(0.88)x

Part A: Is the price of fuel A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per month? Justify your answer. (5 points)

Part B: The table below shows the price g(m), in dollars, of fuel B after m months.

m (number of months) 1 2 3 4
g(m) (price in dollars) 3.44 3.30 3.17 3.04
