MEDAL!!!!!!!!!! Tommy has $350 of his graduation gift money saved at home, and the amount is modeled by the function h(x) = 350. He reads about a bank that has savings accounts that accrue interest according to the function s(x) = (1.04)^x − 1. After combining the two functions, his new function is g(x) = 350(1.04)^x − 1. Using complete sentences, explain what this new function means

hello hamza

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you guess what the first step would be?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Okay, I will assume you understand the first function. Do you know what the second function means

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the question bascially

OpenStudy (thefurball):

The equation for exponential growth is\[y = initial(1 + rate)^{time}\]Maybe that will help you understand a bit better

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does the new function means that it used exponential growth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok is that the answer
