Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the values of a and b, we use the intersection point P.
Since the graph of f is intersected by P=(-2,2), f(-2)=2, that is, a(2)^(-2)=2. Then a=2(2)²=8.
Since the graph of g is intersected by P=(-2,2), g(-2)=2, that is, -2+b=2. Then b=2+2=4.
Hence a=8, b=4.
To find the other point of intersection Q, we need to find a number x such that f(x)=g(x), that is, 8(2)^(x)=x+4. Rewrite this equation as follows:
It is not easy to solve this equation analitically. Instead, you can apply a quantitative method. First, the left hand side is an exponential function, so it is always positive. Then the solution will be a number in which the right side (x+4) is positive, that is, x > -4. The solution is an integer, then the possible values are x=-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,...
Now, the RHS must be a power of two, so the possible integers are x=-3,-2,0,4,12,28,... However, the LHS grows very quickly, while the LHS grows slowly. Then, it is only necessary to test small integer values (we already know that x=-2 is a solution).
If we test with x=-1, we get 2²=4=3, then x=-1 is not a solution. Any x>-1 will not be a solution, because f increases much faster than g, and then they won't intersect. So our possibilities reduce to x=-3,-2. Taking x=-3, we get f(-3)=2⁰=1=-3+4=g(-3). Thus, (-3,0) is the other point of intersection Q. (r=-3, s=0).
