For 5, we if the y-vlaues are increasing by a common ratio.
(y at x = 1) / (y at x = 0) is = 8 / 4 = 2
(y at x = 2) / (y at x = 1) is 24 / 8 = 3
(y at x = 3) / (y at x = 2) is 48/24 = 2
no, exponential function cannot model this data. you can see that the what you have to multiply to the previous changes.
exponential function has the form y = a(b)^x. if that "b" value kept changing, it's not exponential. like y = 4(2)^x would be exponential only for the first two values since y = 4(2)^x at x = 0 is 4 and y = 4(2)^x at x = 1 is 8, but it is not 24 at x = 2 since y = 4(2)^2 = 16.
6.
exponential function has the form y = a(b)^(x)
we see at x = 0, y = 1 so
1 = a(b)^0
1 = a(1)
a = 1
since a=1, we have y = 1(b)^x. to find b, use other points
since at x = 1 we have y = 3, then
3 = (b)^1
b = 3
so the function is y = 3^x
Use:
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiply
Divide
Addition
Subtract
If those are in ur problem use it the way it’s put
Answer:
y = 3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
slope = change in y / change in x = (44 - 38) / (12 - 10) = 6/2 = 3
y = 3x + b
Now substitute any value from the table to find b. Let's use (10,38)
y = 3x + b
38 = 3(10) + b
38 = 30 + b
8 = b
so equation is y = 3x + 8
