Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's move the to the right-hand side so we can determine what constant we'll need on the left-hand side to complete the square:
From here, since the coefficient of the term is
, we know the square will be
(since
it's half of
).
To complete this square, we will need to add to both sides of the equation:
Now we can take the square root of both sides to figure out the solutions to :
Answer:
y = (5/4)2^x
Step-by-step explanation:
The function value increases by a factor of 40/10 = 4 when x increases by 2. The function can be written as ...
y = (reference value)·(growth factor)^((x -reference)/(change in x for growth factor))
y = 10·4^((x-3)/2) . . . . . . using point (3, 10) as a reference
This can be simplified to ...
y = 10·2^(x -3) = 10/8·2^x
y = (5/4)2^x
