<span>when flipped over a line of reflection the lengths are still the same
the point to the line of reflection is the same length as the line of reflection to the reflected position
the distance from the original point to the reflected point is twice the distance from the original point to the line of reflection. </span>
Do you notice anything strange about those points ?
(0, 1),
(1, 2),
(2, 4),
(3, 8).
The y-coordinate of each point is (2) raised to the power of the x-coordinate.
First point: x=0, y=2⁰ = 1
Second point: x=1, y=2¹ = 2
Third point: x=2, y=2² = 4
Fourth point: x=3, y=2³ = 8
The equation of the curve appears to be
y = 2 ^ x .
So, after 10 hours, x=10, and y = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 .
X,x because we dont know its value
