f(t)= 1+.9e^(-.02t) with t ≥ 0 what is the range of the function? justify your answer
kush^420
The range of the function consists of all possible values f(t) can assume, for values of t from 0 to inf. Since we now know that f(t) is strictly decreasing, the maximum value (a) of the range is at t=0, or f(0). The minimum value of f(t) is when t=inf (b). Can you find these values a and b? The range is therefore [a,b).
would the range be [1.9, 1) because (1+.9(1)) and (1+.9(0))
Almost, the numbers are correct, but not in the right place (my bad). The range is expressed in smaller number first, so it is (1, 1.9]. The parentheses are reversed because 1.9 corresponds to f(0), so it is included. 1.0 corresponds to f(x)->1 as x-<>infinity, which is excluded (so use "(" ).
* x-> infinity
wonderful thank you so much!
