What is the rate of decay for the function f(x) =2(0.95)^x ( x is on top of the parentheses)

The decay rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a substance is decaying at the rate of r% per hour from the initial value of P for t hours, then the final value of the substance is given by the function  

........... (1)

Comparing this equation with the original equation given as

............ (2) we get,

⇒

⇒ r = 5%.

Therefore, the decay rate is 5%. (Answer)

Well if you divide 58.99 by 12 the answer is 4.9158333333 however using rounding you get 4.92..BUT since they are asking for an estimate they are most likely looking for 4.00 instead of the ''Exact'' answer.

Hope this Helps :)
