Question

Can someone help me with these functions

Answer 1

Answer:

Function 1:

The starting point is (0,0.5)

As x increases, y increases

Function 2:

The starting point is (0,3)

As x increases, y decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the starting point, we need to plug in x=0.

$y=0.5+3(0)\\\\y=0.5$

$y=3(0.5)^0\\\\y=3(1)\\\\y=3$

As we plug in increasing numbers into function#1, the y-value increases

As we plug in increasing numbers into function #2, the y-value is decreasing
