Hi there!
To find an equivalent function for this function, we can just simplify it.
f(x) = (6)4x
f(x) = 24x
is an equivalent function.
Hope this helps!
I think its 38 but I'm not sure
Just o be sure you are asking what (X) equals
Y = a (b^x)
1) x = 0, y = 3500
=> 3500 = a (b^0)
=> 3500 = a (1)
=> a = 3500
2) growth percent = 3.5% => growth rate = 1.035 = b
=> y = 3500 (1.035)^ x
3) year 2020 => x = 2020 - 2000 = 20
4) y = 3500 (1.035)^ 20 = 6964
Answer: 6964.
Look in the table at the column that has 1 minute and 4.25 pages. Printer A prints 4.25 pages in 1 minute which is a rate of 4.25 pages per minute. The rate of printing is the slope in the equation. A rate of 4.25 pages per minute is represented by the equation y = 4.25x, where 4.25 ids the slope of the equation.
We are told that Printer A prints faster than Printer B, so Printer B must have a lower rate of printing than Printer A. The equation for Printer B must have a slope less than 4.25.
There are two choices which have a slope less than than 4.25.
Answer: y = 4.2x; y = 4x
