1 answer

Here are the answers to each of the multiple-choice questions provided:

Question 1:

  • True Statement about the Expression: It is irrational and equal to 4 multiplied by square root of 2.
    • Explanation: \( \sqrt{32} = 4\sqrt{2} \), so \( \sqrt{32} + \sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} = 5\sqrt{2} \), which is again irrational.

Question 2:

  • Equation for Property Value Growth: \( y = 150,000(1.1)^x \)
    • Explanation: Since the property values increase by 10% every year, the growth factor is \( 1 + 0.10 = 1.1 \).

Question 3:

  • Function Equivalent: \( f(x) = 4(3.24)^x \)
    • Explanation: \( 1.8^{2x} = (1.8^2)^x = (3.24)^x \).

Question 4:

  • Statement about Savings: The savings will increase by the same factor for both.
    • Explanation: Both functions are linear with the same rate of increase.

Question 5:

  • Function Behavior: Growth; \( y = 0 \)
    • Explanation: The base \( 1.87 > 1 \) shows growth, and the horizontal asymptote for exponential growth is \( y = 0 \).

Question 6:

  • Interpretation of the Equation: Amount of trash originally in the landfill
    • Explanation: The equation shows \( 1,000 \) as the initial amount when \( x = 0 \).

Question 7:

  • Reasonable Domain for Fish Population: \( 0 \leq x \leq 31 \)
    • Explanation: It represents the days from 0 to 31 as indicated in the graph.

Question 8:

  • Equivalent Expression: \( 5 \) to the power of one sixth
    • Explanation: The cube root of \( 5 \) is \( 5^{1/3} \), and then taking the square root gives \( (5^{1/3})^{1/2} = 5^{1/6} \).

Question 9:

  • Type of Function: This is a linear function because there is a common difference in the balance between the months.
    • Explanation: The balances decrease at a consistent rate.

Question 10:

  • Graph Representation: Graph of a decreasing exponential function going through two on the y-axis.
    • Explanation: The function \( f(x) = 2(0.6)^x \) starts at \( 2 \) and decreases over time.

Question 11:

  • Comparison of Elimination Rates: Clara's body eliminated the antibiotic at half of the rate at which Heidi's body eliminated the antibiotic.
    • Explanation: Calculating rates gives insight into the elimination from each of their bodies.

Question 12:

  • Constant Percent Rate of Change: 51% decay
    • Explanation: The base \( 0.51 \) indicates decay, and the constant percent change is \( 1 - 0.51 = 0.49 \text{ or } 49% \).

Question 13:

  • Term for Original Investment: \( 1,000 \)
    • Explanation: This is the principal amount invested originally.

Question 14:

  • Average Rate of Change: 12.36 dollars per year
    • Explanation: Calculate the value at years 2 and 5 and find the change over the difference in years.

Question 15:

  • Company with the Largest Percent Increase: Company B
    • Explanation: Company B has a larger growth factor (1.80) compared to Company A (1.04).

These answers encapsulate the reasoning and explanation behind each option in your questions.
