2x – 6y = 12
for x = 1
2 - 6y = 12
y = -10/6
y = -5/3
For x = 2
4 – 6y = 12
y = -8/6
y = -4/3
For x = 3
6 – 6y = 12
<span>y = -1</span><span>

Hence

<span>the population of squirrels in a forest after 3x years: f(x) = 30(1.03)3x
By multiplying 1.03 with 3 will make it 3.0900.This will not effect the parent function and thus the equivalent expression for the given function will be </span>f(x) = 30(3.0900)x
f(x) = 30(1.03)3x ====> f(x) = 30(3.0900)x<span>
</span>
Continue: root3 + root2 + root3 - root2 - 2 = 2root2 - 2 => rootx-(1/rootx) = root(2root2 - 2);
