Part A: Short Answer 1. Using your knowledge of exponent laws and exponential functions, describe/explain ONE of the following questions: a) Describe/explain how the functions /(x) =5" and g(x) =( ) are related. Use a sketch if necessary. OR b) Explain why an exponential function of the form y = a(b)" has a horizontal asymptote, but not a vertical asymptote. OR c) Explain why the base of an exponential function can't be negative. 2. Identify each table of values as linear, quadratic, or exponential. Show calculations to help explain/support your answer. (For the exponential function(s) state whether it is growth or decay AND the rate) X Y X Y -4 2 -4 364 -3 -3 121 -2 -6 -2 40 -1 -13 -1 13 -22 0 4 -33 3. Left unchecked, vampirococcus, the bacteria transmitted from a vampire bite, can double in as little as 12 minutes. Assume 35 bacteria are transmitted during the average bite. a) Write an equation relating the number of bacteria, B, to time, t, in minutes. b) Use your equation to determine the number of bacteria after 60 minutes. c) Use your equation to determine the number of bacteria after 6 hours. 4. In 2001, Dr. Frankenstein took out a loan of $2250 to buy parts for his monster. In 2015 he owed the goblin bank $8000. Determine the average annual growth rate of this loan
