Multiple Choice

Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
-A population is increasing according to the exponential function defined by y $$y = 3 e ^ { - 04 x }$$ , where y is in millions and x is the number of years. Which of the following should be done in order to answer
The question "How long will it take for the population to quadruple?"

• A) Solve \(3 e ^ { \cdot 04 x } = 4\)
• B) Solve \(3 e ^ {\cdot 04 x} = 12\).
• C) Evaluate \(y = 3 \mathrm { e } ^ { .04 ( 1 / 4 ) }\)
• D) Evaluate y \(= 3 \mathrm { e } ^ { .04 ( 4 ) }\).

Brake Fluid

A type of hydraulic fluid used in brake systems to transfer force into pressure, enabling braking.

Power Boosters

Power boosters amplify the force applied to a system, such as in braking systems where they assist in applying greater force to the brake pedal with less physical effort.

Hydraulic Boosters

Devices that use hydraulic pressure to amplify or boost the force applied, commonly used in brake systems.
