Exponential Growth Exponential Decay

Growth;

A = 20,000(1.08)^t

A = 40(3)^t

P = 1700(1.07)^t

Decay;

A = 80(1/2)^t

A = 1600(0.8)^t

P = 1700(0.93)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to differentiate between decay and growth is the term inside the bracket

For growth, the term inside the bracket is greater than 1, while for decay, the term inside the bracket is less than 1

Looking at the given equations, we have;

Growth;

A = 20,000(1.08)^t

A = 40(3)^t

P = 1700(1.07)^t

Decay;

A = 80(1/2)^t

A = 1600(0.8)^t

P = 1700(0.93)^t
