We have the equation:

y=a\cdot b^x

We know two points and we will use them to calculate the parameters a and b.

The point (0,3) will let us know a, as b^0=1.

\begin{gathered} y=a\cdot b^x \\ 3=a\cdot b^0=a \\ a=3 \end{gathered}

Now, we use the point (2, 108/25) to calcualte b:

\begin{gathered} y=3\cdot b^x \\ \frac{108}{25}=3\cdot b^2 \\ 3\cdot b^2=\frac{108}{25} \\ b^2=\frac{108}{25\cdot3}=\frac{108}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{25}=\frac{36}{25} \\ b=\sqrt[]{\frac{36}{25}} \\ b=\frac{\sqrt[]{36}}{\sqrt[]{25}} \\ b=\frac{6}{5} \end{gathered}

Then, we can write the equation as:

y=3\cdot(\frac{6}{5})^x

Its y=3/4x+3

you can solve it

-3x+4y=12

add 3x both sides

4y=3x+12

divide 4 by both sides

y=3/4x+4

2) What is the relationship between the coefficient of f(x)=a/x/ and its effects on the graph?
True [87]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

The coefficient a in a linear function (or even a modular function) implies the slope of the function line. The higher the value of a, the greater the slope of the line. the lower the value of a, the lower the slope of the line
