Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer to attached for points
a) f(-1) = 3 as per graph
b) f(x) = 6
We add horizontal line through point y=6 to find intersections with the graph
Take x-values of those points. The points are x = -3, x = -2, x = 2
Answer:
a = 8, b =
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the exponential function
f(x) = a
To find a and b use the given coordinate points on the graph
Using (0, 8 ), then
8 = a [
= 1 ] , then
a = 8
f(x) = 8
Using (2, 18 ) , then
18 = 8b² ( divide both sides by 8 )
= b² , that is
b² = ( take the square root of both sides )
b = =
Thus
f(x) = 8
