Question

Write an exponential equation in the form y = ab^x whose graph passes through points (4, 8) and (6, 32).

Answer 1

Answer:

(1,4),(2,12)

----------

The form is y = ab^x

12 = ab^2

4 = ab^1

------------

Divide the 1st by the 2nd to get:

3 = b

--------

Substitute that into the 2nd equation to solve for "a":

4 = a*3^1

a=(4/3)

-------------

EQUATION:

y = (4/3)*2^x
