Answer:

Here is the complete question (attachment).

The function which represent the given points are f(x)=8(2)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a general exponential function is like,y=a(b)^{x}

We can find the answer by hit and trial method by plugging the values of (x,y) coordinates.

Here we are going to solve this with the above general formula.

So as the points are (1,16) then for x=1,\ y=16

Can be arranged in terms of the general equation.

ab^1=16...equation(1) and ab^4=128...equation(2)

a\times b=16, then\ a=\frac{16}{a}

Plugging the values in equation 2.

We have

\frac{16}{b} b^4=128,16\times b^3=128,b=\sqrt[3]{\frac{128}{16}} =\sqrt[3]{8}=2

Plugging b=2 in equation 1.

We have a=\frac{16}{b} =\frac{16}{2} =8

Comparing with the general equation of exponential a=8 and b=2

So the function which depicts the above points =y=8(2)^x

From theoption we have B as the correct answer.

Explain how trigonometry can be used to determine the height of a cell phone tower.
saul85 [17]
Trigonometry can be used to determine the height of a cell phone tower by using SOH CAH TOA or the Pythagorean theorem. If you look at it as a right triangle you can figure out how tall the tower is. If an angle is given (not a 90°angle) and the value of a side you can figure out all of the sides on the theoretical right triangle. Including the height of the tower.

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Suppose a random number generator from 1 to 1,000 is used as a statistical model to create simulated results for births in the United States during 2018. Suppose the numbers 1 to 511 represent a male birth in the United States during 2018 and 512 to 1,000 represent a female birth in the United States during 2018. Explain whether the following results
