Q7: f(x)= 6(1.92)^2. What does the value of 1.92 in the function tell
the dendrologist?
A) The number of leaves shed almost doubles each day

D) The number of leaves left on the tree is reduced by about 92%
every six days—Ans: ANSWER: A
Problem Solving and Data Analysis/Scatterplots
When an exponential equation is written in the form of f(x) = ab^x,
a is the starting amount, b is the rate of growth or decay. Choice
A is right because 1.92 is b in the equation, which represents the
growth rate, so it tells the dendrologist that the number of leaves
shed almost doubles each day.

There is an open dot on the number line, which means the sign
must be < or > (C or D). You don't even need to solve the
equation. The graph is shaded to the left which means the graph

shows a < -4. However, there is a negative sign in front of the a
term, therefore you have to change the sign. Check answer by
solving the inequality using the sign you chose.

Q18: Suppose a tourist drove to an elevation of 2,390 meters and
from that point climbed to the top of the mountain, and then
descended back to the car taking the same route. If it took her a
total of 7 hours to climb up and back down, and she climbed at
an average rate of 264 vertical meters per hour going up and
twice that going down, approximately how tall is Mt. Fuji?
A) 1,232 ft
B) 2,464 ft
C) 3,622 ft
D) 3,776 ft—Ans: ANSWER: C

Distance = Rate x Time. d = 264x. She went down twice as fast for
7-x time. therefore, d=2(264(7-x))
Set them equal to each other.
x= 4.6666
2,390 + (4.6666 x 264) = 3,622

Q25: The company increases the amount of its power typically
generated by solar panels by 60%, then reduces it by 30%, then
increases it by 75% before shutting the panels down for the night.
What is the net percentage increase of this company's reliance on
solar panels during that day?
A) 75%
B) 96%
C) 105%
D) 165%—Ans: ANSWER: B

Percentages
Use 100 as a starting point. Then take the percent that it asks and
use that numerical value to either add or subtract.

A) 2 cos(1.7)
B) 2 sin(1.7)
C) 4 cos(0.85)
D) 4 sin (0.85)—Ans: ANSWER: D

This is in radians because there is no degree symbol. arcL = theta x
radius. Theta is the central angle.
