Can some one help me with the rest of this chapter! I’ll pay them as-well!

Explanation:

Any exponential function is of the form y = a*b^x

Comparing that to y = 475*(0.5)^x, we see that a = 475 and b = 0.5

Set b equal to 1+r and solve for r

1+r = 0.5

r = 0.5-1

r = -0.5

The negative r value tells us that the growth rate is -50%, in other words, we have a 50% decay rate. The amount drops by 50% each time x goes up by 1. This is the same as saying the amount cuts in half each time x goes up by 1.

Lastly, plug in x = 3 to find f(3)

f(x) = 475(0.5)^x

f(3) = 475(0.5)^3

f(3) = 59.375

f(3) = 59.4
