Consider the exponential function f(x) = 2(3x) and its graph.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The initial value of the function is <u>2</u>

The base of the function is <u>3</u>

The function shows exponential <u>growth</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(3^x)

Exponential functions are those with the following equation:

y = a*b^x

where a ≠ 0, b > 0 and b ≠ 1 and x is a real number.

<em>a</em> is the y-intercept and <em>b </em>is the base.

The initial value of the function is the same as the y-intercept

If <em>a</em> is positive, the function growth. If <em>a</em> is negative, the function decay

What number can go into 2470,121 and 45<br>​
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All of these numbers can be divided by 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13...

There is no whole number if you want to divide each number.

121 only goes into 1, 11, and 121. No other numbers have 11

45/2 = 22.5

45/3 = 15

45/5 = 9

2470/2 = 1235

2470/3 = 823.33333...

2470/5 = 494

121/2 = 60.5

121/3 = 40.33333...

121/5 = 24.2
