f(x)=3^x\\\\g(x)=3^{x+a}+b\\\\\text{We have the points (-2, 2) and (-1, 4). Substitute:}\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2=3^{-2+a}+b\\4=3^{-1+a}+b\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{subtract both sides of the equations}\\.\ \ -2=3^{-2+a}-3^{-1+a}\\-2=3^{-2}\cdot3^a-3^{-1}\cdot3^a\\-2=\dfrac{1}{3^2}\cdot3^a-\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot3^a\\-2=\left(\dfrac{1}{9}-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)\cdot3^a\\-2=\left(\dfrac{1}{9}-\dfrac{3}{9}\right)\cdot3^a\\-2=-\dfrac{2}{9}\cdot3^a\qquad\text{multiply both sides by}\ -\dfrac{9}{2}

3=3^a\\3^a=3^2\to a=2\\\\\text{substitute value of a to the second equation}\\\\3^{-1+2}+b=4\\3^1+b=4\\3+b=4\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\b=1\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{g(x)=3^{x+2}+1}

Please help thank you!

Answer:

  • golf: $10
  • batting: $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write two equations in the two unknowns using the given relations. Let g and b represent the costs of a round of golf and a turn in the batting cage, respectively.

  5g +4b = 60 . . . . . Sylvester's expense

  3g +6b = 45 . . . . . Lin's expense

Dividing the second equation by 3 gives ...

  g +2b = 15   ⇒   2b = 15 -g

Substituting into the first equation, we have ...

  5g +2(2b) = 60

  5g +2(15 -g) = 60 . . . . . substitute for 2b

  3g = 30 . . . . . . . . . subtract 30, collect terms

  g = 10 . . . . . . . divide by 3

__

  2b = 15 -10 = 5 . . . . use the value of g to find b

  b = 2.5 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Mini golf costs $10 per round; batting cages cost $2.50 per turn.
