To match each exponential function with its type and constant percent rate of change, we'll first analyze the forms of the given functions:

  1. y = 270(0.5)^(0.7t) - This is a decay function since the base (0.5) is less than 1. The percent rate of change can be calculated as (0.5 - 1) * 100 = -50%. Thus, it has a -50% rate of change.

  2. y = 400(1.04)^(t^2) - This is a growth function since the base (1.04) is greater than 1. The percent rate of change can be calculated as (1.04 - 1) * 100 = 4%. Thus, it has a 4% rate of change.

  3. y = 42(1.67)^(t^5) - This is also a growth function since the base (1.67) is greater than 1. The percent rate of change can be calculated as (1.67 - 1) * 100 = 67%. Thus, it has a 67% rate of change.

  4. y = 640(0.83)^(0.65t) - This is a decay function since the base (0.83) is less than 1. The percent rate of change can be calculated as (0.83 - 1) * 100 = -17%. Thus, it has a -17% rate of change.

Now, let's summarize the matching:

  • y = 270(0.5)^(0.7t) → Decay, -50%
  • y = 400(1.04)^(t^2) → Growth, 4%
  • y = 42(1.67)^(t^5) → Growth, 67%
  • y = 640(0.83)^(0.65t) → Decay, -17%

You can input these matches as appropriate in your response platform.
