no prob sweetie!

Answer 4

\[
f(t) = Q_0a^t \\
f(6) = Q_0a^6 = 470.5 ~~~ \text{----- (1) }\\
f(8) = Q_0a^8 = 1698.4 ~~ \text{----- (2) }\\
\]
Divide (2) / (1). What do you get?

Answer 5

0.277

Answer 6

so you round to the one decimal place, 0.3, so thats the answer?

Answer 7

If you divide (2) by (1) you get:
\[\large \frac{Q_0a^8}{Q_0a^6}= \frac{1698.4}{470.5} = 3.61\\ \large
a^2 = 3.61 \\ \large
a = \sqrt{3.61} = 1.9\]

Answer 8

\[a = 1 + r = 1.9 \\ r = 1.9 - 1.0 = 0.9\]
Growth rate = .9 x 100 = 90%
