Answer a = 5 and b = 2.
Procedure
Initially means x = 0, then
5 = a*b^0 = a*1 = a, then a = 5
When x = 1, the height is the double of 5, i.e 10 and
10 = a.b^1 = a.b ⇒ b = 10/a = 10/5 = 2
The a = 5 and b = 2, so the equation is y =5(2)^x
Answer:
A (equals -320.0064 just like in the question)
C is the correct answer. A, B, and C have terms with different powers of y, and as a result, these terms are not like. C, however, has only multiples of y cubed, so it is a set of like terms.
