Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function which crosses through (1,3) and (2,9) will have a base of 3 since the y values are multiples of 3.

3^1 = 3

3^2 = 9

This means that the function is y = 3^x.

y = 3x

Substitute the two points into the equation y = abx, giving 3 = ab1 and 9 = ab2.

Since a = a, then  

3

b1

=  

9

b2

, rearranged yields 3b2 = 9b1 → 3b2 − 9b = 0 → b(3b − 9) = 0

Thus, b = 0 or b = 3.

A curve of exponential function never drop below the x-axis, ignore any values of b that are less than or equal to zero.

Therefore, insert b = 3 into  

3

b1

= a and  

9

b2

= a → a = 1 for both equations.

y = abx

y = (1)(3x)

y = 3x

At what point on the curve y = 2 + 2ex − 4x is the tangent line parallel to the line 4x − y = 3? (x, y) =
Papessa [141]

Answer:

{ln 4, (2 + 2e^ln 4 − 4 ln 4)} or (1.39, 4.45)

Step-by-step explanation:

From this equation 4x − y = 3

-y = 3 - 4x

then, y = 4x - 3

From line equation y = mx + b

Therefore, the slope is 4

Since the are parallel line, they will have same slope

Finding the derivative of y = 2 + 2e^x − 4x

y = 2 + 2e^x − 4x

y' = 0 + 2e^x - 4

Therefore,

4 = 2e^x - 4

4 = e^x

x = ln 4 = 1.39

To find the y coordinate

y = 2 + 2e^x − 4x

y = 2 + 2e^ln 4 − 4 ln 4

y = 4.45

Hence, they are parallel at point (1.39 and 4.45)
