Which is the best description of the graph of the function f(x)=60(1/3)^x?

: the graph has an initial value of 60, and each successive term is determined by multiplying by 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(xequal 6 [1/nitial value x=0, f(x) = 60*[1/3]^0 = 60*1 = 60x=1 ⇒f(1) = 60*[1/3]x=2 f(2) = 60*[1/3]^2 = f(1) * [1/3]x = n  f(n) = 60*[1/3]^n=60*[1/3]^(n-1)*[1/3] = f(n-1)*[1/3]

you probably already have the answer but anyways it's b. 15.0

step-by-step explanation:

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
