Answer:
If one of the data points has the form \displaystyle \left(0,a\right)(0,a), then a is the initial value. Using a, substitute the second point into the equation \displaystyle f\left(x\right)=a{\left(b\right)}^{x}f(x)=a(b)
x
, and solve for b.
If neither of the data points have the form \displaystyle \left(0,a\right)(0,a), substitute both points into two equations with the form \displaystyle f\left(x\right)=a{\left(b\right)}^{x}f(x)=a(b)
x
. Solve the resulting system of two equations in two unknowns to find a and b.
Using the a and b found in the steps above, write the exponential function in the form \displaystyle f\left(x\right)=a{\left(b\right)}^{x}f(x)=a(b)
x
.

Answer:
D. (17,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll start by canceling out x. To do so, multiple the first equation by -1
-1( x - 2y)=( 19 )(-1)
This gives us:
-x +2y = -19
x + 3y = 14
Add the equations together:
→ 5y = -15
→ y = -1
Plug in y = -1 into an equation:
→ x + 3(-1) = 14
→ x - 3 = 14
→ x = 17
(17,-1)
Hope this helps!
