lf the decay factor is 08, then the base of the corresponding exponential growth model is 0.8.
If the decay rate is 20% then the base of the corresponding exponential growth model is 100% 20% = 80% = 0.8.
At a 80% decrease, the base of the corresponding exponential model is 100% - 80% = 20% = 0.2
Thus we can conclude that the base of 08, the decay factor of 08 and the decay rate of 20% are equivalent, however the 80% decrease is not.
