the price of fuel may increase due to demand and decrease due to overproduction. george is studying the change in the price of two types of fuel, a and b, over time.

the price f(x), in dollars, of fuel a after x months is represented by the function below:

f(x) = 2.27(0.88)x

part a: is the price of fuel a increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per month? justify your answer. (5 points)

part b: the table below shows the price g(m), in dollars, of fuel b after m months.

m (number of months) 1 2 3 4
g(m) (price in dollars) 3.44 3.30 3.17 3.04

which type of fuel recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous month? justify your answer. (5 points)

answer: need points lol

step-by-step explanation:

the value of v.w= -12.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given three vector r,v and w as:

r = < 5, -5, -2> ; v = < 2, -8, -8> ; w = < -2, 6, -5>

we know that r,v and w could also be represented as:

r=5i-5j-2k

v=2i-8j-8k

and w= -2i+6j-5k

where i,j and k are the unit vectors of x,y and z-axis respectively.

also we know that it has the following property:

i.i=1 ; j.j=1; k.k=1

and i.=j.i=i.k=k.i=j.k=k.j=0

i.e. when we multiply two vectors or we find it's dot product we need to only multiply the components of x coordinates with each other; y with each other and z with each other.

hence, v.w= (2i-8j- -2i+6j-5k)

                  = 2×(-2)+(-8)×(6)+(-8)×(-5)

                  = -4-48+40

                  = -12

hence, v.w= -12
