Peter has saved $10. he doubles the amount he saves each week. does this represent a exponential function? if so, write down the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential function.  Peter is not simply adding $10 a week to his savings, he's doubling each value each week.  The first case of adding $10 a week is linear.  

The standard form of an exponential equation is

where a is the initial amount and b is the growth or decay factor.  We know a = 10 because we are told he started with $10.  After the first week he would have $20 then because $10 doubled is $20.  That coordinate is (1, 20).  We will use that in place of x and y and solve for b:

b to the first is just b, so what we have essentially is 10b = 20, so b = 2.  The equation then is:

step-by-step explanation:

there is a formula i can give you:

it is r^2*n*sin(360/n) divided by 2 where r represents the "radius" and n is the number of sides.

plug them in:

(10sqrt(3))^2*6*sin(360/6) divided by 2

100*3*6*sin(60) divided by 2

900*sin(60)

900*sqrt(3)/2

450*sqrt(3)

approx is 779.4 cm^2
