It's a linear function. We need only two points to draw a graph.
We choose any values of x and calculate the value of y.
for x= 0 → y = 3(0) - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1 → (0, -1)
for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5 → (2, 5)
for x = 0 → y = 3(0) - 1/3 = 0 - 1/3 = -1/3 → (0, -1/3)
for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1/3 = 6 - 1/3 = 5 2/3 → (2, 5 2/3)
Answer:
trapezoid
the horizontal side lengths wont touch each other if you extend them out
the exponent tells you how many times to multiply the base number by itself.
for 35 the base number or base is 3 and the exponent is 5
the value is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 which has 3 multiplied by itself five times
So your question is going in the opposite direction.
Rather than going from a power and expanding it, we have the expanded form and we are asked to write the power
3 x 3 x 3 is written 33
