Respuesta :

The graph that models the exponential function [tex]A(t) = 35000(0.85)^t[/tex] is given at the end of the question.

What is an exponential function?

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The initial value and the growth rate are given, respectively, by:

A(0) = 35000, r = 0.15.

Hence the equation is given by:

[tex]A(t) = 35000(0.85)^t[/tex]

The graph is given at the end of the question.
