Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the graph

The graph shows an exponential decay function. It appears to pass through the point (1, -4) and has a vertical asymptote at x = 0.

Step 2: Determine the general form

The general form of an exponential decay function is y = abx + c, where a is the initial value, b is the base (0 < b < 1), and c is the horizontal asymptote.

Step 3: Find the horizontal asymptote

The graph appears to approach y = -10 as x increases. Therefore, c = -10.

Step 4: Use a point to find 'a' and 'b'

We can use the point (1, -4) and the horizontal asymptote y = -10 to find the values of 'a' and 'b'. Substituting the point (1, -4) into the equation y = abx - 10, we get: -4 = ab - 10. This simplifies to ab = 6.

Step 5: Further analysis and assumptions

Without more information (another point), it is tricky to solve for both a and b definitively. We can make an informed guess that it will likely be similar to y = -6(1/2)^x -10 or another base < 1.

Final Answer

It's not possible to determine the _exact_ equation of the exponential function with certainty from just the given graph and one clear point. However, a likely candidate considering its properties is something of the form y = -6(1/2)^x - 10 or a similar form with a different value for b (where 0 < b < 1) but a clear horizontal asymptote at -10. We would need at least one more point to pinpoint the exact equation.

Water Absorption During Digestion While both the small and large intestines absorb water, they do not share the job equally. Consider the following typical measurements: Volume entering the small intestine: 9,500 mL Volume entering the large intestine: 580 mL Volume leaving the large intestine: 200 mL What percentage of the water entering the small intestine is absorbed by the small intestine? 90 96 94 92 What percentage of the water entering the small intestine is absorbed by the large intestine? 4 8 2 6 What percentage of the water entering the small intestine is not absorbed during the digestive process? 8 6 4 2 A typical volume leaving the large intestine might be 200 mL.
