What is the exponential growth or decay. Of this function and the constant percentage?

20(.876)^x

Would the percentage be expressed a decimal? I know it is decay ,so would you just add a negative to whatever percentage you get?

1 answer

it's decay; because the base, being raised to a power, is less than one

the percentage is the difference between the base and one

.876 - 1 = -.124 = -12.4%
