HELP! WILL MEDAL! Lori has determined a function f(x) that shows the exponential growth of the number of jeans Tim owns each year. Explain how the f−1(x) can be found and what f−1(250) means.

1/ Have to assume that Harrison has also picked an acct with a high interest rate. If so his plan would make the most money If bases were equal: 50x = 17x 50x-17x = 0 35x = 0 x= 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think this has anything to do with my question..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no...it doesn't. I accidentally copied the wrong thing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me try it again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol! Its ok.. just a lil confusing :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f ^{negative1}\] means the year in which Tim owns 250 pairs of jeans

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would I Explain how the f−1(x) can be found?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is found by taking the inverse of the exponential function aka the logarithm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, thanks. How about this one? Kylee is managing a small theme park and has been analyzing the attendance data. Kylee has found that the number of visitors increases exponentially as the temperature increases. Kylee has also found a linear equation that models the number of people who leave the park early depending on the temperature. Describe how Kylee can combine these two functions into a new function and explain what that function would predict.

not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any others?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes!

Patrick and Brooklyn are making decisions on their bank accounts. Patrick wants to put money in an account that has a higher interest rate but only gains interest for a short period of time. Brooklyn wants to put the money in an account with a lower interest rate, but it gains interest for a longer period of time. Explain which method will result in more money.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the interest rate that Patrick put his money into will result in less money, because it only earns interest over a shorter period of time. Right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im not sure. Im confused about this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Brooklyn's account will earn more money because it has a longer period of time on the interest time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think about this: $5 for two days=$10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there an equation that I would use to explain this? Pe^rt?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$2 dollars for 10 days = $20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is that, but there is no numbers to do that with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats all I can do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to go
