Answer:

The exponential function will be  f(x) = 5(2)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the exponential function is given by f(x) = a(b)^{x} ............ (1)

Now, ordered pairs (2,20) and (3,40) are the solution of the above exponential function. So, they will satisfy the equation.

Now, for the ordered pair (2,20) putting f(2) = 20, we get

20 = a(b)^{2} ............. (2)

Again, for the ordered pair (3,40) putting f(3) = 40, we get

40 = a(b)^{3} ............. (3)

Now, from equations (3) and equation (2) we get,

2 = b

⇒ b = 2.

Now, from equation (2) we get, 20 = a(2)^{2} = 4a

⇒ a = 5

Therefore, the exponential function will be

f(x) = 5(2)^{x} (Answer)

URGENT HELP<br> Solve for X
suter [353]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

95 + 85 + 100 + 27x -1 = 360

280 + 27x - 1 = 360

279 + 27x = 360

27x = 81

x = 3

Double check your work:

95 + 85 + 100 + 27(3) - 1 = 360

95 + 85 + 100 + 81 -1 =360

360 = 360

How to find the answer
KATRIN_1 [288]
Use this equation:
A = P(1+r)^t

Where A is the final amount
P is the initial amount
r is the annual rate
t is the time in years

P = 1500
r = 0.07
t = 3

A = 1500 (1.07^3)
≈ $1837.56

Have an awesome day! :)
