Using the given table of an exponential function, determine the growth/decay factor as well as the rate of increase/decrease. Type your answers in as numbers. Example: Growth Factor: 3.5, Rate of Increase: 2.5. (Do not input your rate of increase as a percent.)

Growth rate is -0.25

Growth factor is 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of an exponential equation is;

y = a(1 + r)^x

Where a is the initial value

r is the growth rate

For x = 3; we have

168.75 = 400(1 + r)^3 •••• (i)

For x = 2, we have

225 = 400(1 + r)^2 •••••(ii)

Divide i by ii

That will be;

168.75/225 = 1 + r

1 + r = 0.75

r = 0.75-1

r = -0.25

The growth rate is -0.25

The growth factor is 1-0.25 = 0.75

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

17.08

correct me if i am wrong.
