Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A). In exponential equation [tex]80(1.6)^{t}=20[/tex], 1.6 is the common ratio which represents [(1 + 60% of 1) = 1.6] a growth of 60%.
B). In [tex]20(0.6)^{t}=1.2[/tex] common ratio is 0.6 [(1 - 40% of 1)] which represents 40% decay.
C). In [tex]60(0.8)^{t}=1.4[/tex] common ratio is 0.8 [(1 - 20% of 1)] which represents 20% decay.
D). In [tex]40(0.2)^{t}=1.6[/tex] common ratio is 0.2 [(1 - 80% of 1)] which represents 80% decay.
E). In [tex]1.2(1.4)^{t}=80[/tex] common ratio is 1.4 [(1 + 40% of 1)] which represents 40% growth.
