Answer:


or

Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to see if the exponential curve is of the form:
, (
).
If you are given the
intercept, then
is easy to find.
It is just the
coordinate of the
intercept is your value for
.
(Why? The
intercept happens when
. Replacing
with 0 gives
. This says when
.)
So
.
So our function so far looks like this:

Now to find
we need another point. We have two more points. So we will find
using one of them and verify for our resulting equation works for the other.
Let's do this.
We are given
is a point on our curve.
So when
,
.


Divide both sides by 8:

Reduce the fraction:

So the equation if it works out for the other point given is:

Let's try it. So the last point given that we need to satisfy is
.
This says when
,
.
Let's replace
with 2 and see what we get for
:






So we are good. We have found an equation satisfying all 3 points given.
The equation is
.
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
:


100 divided by 10 is ten, so they would give you ten bottles!
Don't look at this comment.. I messed up the first time so, yeah.
