fill out the following:
initial value, multiplier, growth or decay, decreasing or increasing, domain, range, concavity
Find the mistake given the following information.
y=1/4(3)x
initial value: 1/4
multiplier: 3
decay
increasing
domain: all real numbers
range: y>0
concavity: up
growth, not decay
What do each of the variables in the exponential growth or decay formula stand for? Be specific.
A: total amount
P: initial principal amount
r: interest rate (as a decimal)
t: amount of time
