The table below shows the values of f(x) and g(x) for different values of x. One of the functions is a quadratic function, and t
he other is an exponential function. Which function is most likely increasing quadratically? x f(x) g(x)
1 3 3
2 6 9
3 11 27
4 18 81
5 27 243
f(x), because it grows faster than g(x)
g(x), because it will not intersect f(x)
g(x), because it grows slower than f(x)
f(x), because it grows slower than g(x)
The answer is f(x), because it grows slower than g(x).
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) is a quadratic function (because as you can see the formula of f(x) is x^2 + 2). The function of g(x) is exponentional, and therefore it grows faster than f(x).
