1. The correct option is a.

2. The correct option is b.

3. The correct option is a.

4. The correct option is c.

Step-by-step explanation:

A general exponential function is defined as

It can also written as

(For growth) or   (For decay)

where, a is initial value, b is growth factor.

If 0<b<1, then f(x) is a decay function, if b>1, the f(x) is growth function.

(1).

The given function is

Here, the initial value is 7.2 and growth factor is 1.08.

Growth factor is greater than 1, so f(x) is exponential growth function and percentage rate of growth is

Therefore the correct option is a.

(2)

The given function is

Here, the initial value is 2034 and growth factor is 0.9939.

Growth factor is less than 1, so f(x) is exponential decay function and percentage rate of growth is

Therefore the correct option is b.

(3)

Initial value = 30, increasing at a rate of 13% per year

a=30, r=0.13.

The required function is

Substitute a=30 and r=0.13.

Therefore the correct option is a.

(4)

Initial value = 70, decreasing at a rate of 0.5% per week

a=70, r=0.005

The required function is

Substitute a=70 and r=0.005.

Therefore the correct option is c.
