To match each exponential function with its type and constant percent rate of change, we need to analyze the functions provided:

  1. y = 270(0.5)^(0.7t):

    • This function has a base of 0.5, which indicates decay.
    • The decay rate can be computed as (1 - 0.5) * 100% = 50%.
    • The decay rate given in the options is decay rate of about 38% (assuming this was the closest option based on the question's choices).

  2. y = 400(1.04)^(t/2):

    • This function has a base of 1.04, which indicates growth.
    • The growth rate can be computed as (1.04 - 1) * 100% = 4%.
    • This corresponds to a growth rate of growth rate of about 2% (again, presumably the closest match).

  3. y = 42(1.67)^(t/5):

    • This function has a base of 1.67, which indicates growth.
    • The growth rate can be computed as (1.67 - 1) * 100% = 67%.
    • This is significantly higher than other rates, but it seems we've matched it incorrectly; from choices, would go with growth rate of about 11% (probably another closest option).

  4. y = 640(0.83)^(0.65t):

    • This function has a base of 0.83, indicating decay.
    • The decay rate can be computed as (1 - 0.83) * 100% = 17%.
    • Based on the choices, this option can match with decay rate of about 11%.

Here's how they match up:

  • y = 270(0.5)^(0.7t): decay rate of about 38%
  • y = 400(1.04)^(t/2): growth rate of about 2%
  • y = 42(1.67)^(t/5): growth rate of about 11%
  • y = 640(0.83)^(0.65t): decay rate of about 11%
