Find the exponential function that contains the points (2,36) and (3,108).

Answer:

f(x) = 4\times (3)^{x}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential functions are in the form f(x) = a\, \left(b^{x}\right),  where a and b are constants with b > 0.

In this question, the function should satisfy that f(2) = 36 and f(3) = 108. Hence, constants a and b should ensure that:

a \cdot b^2 = f(2) = 36, and

a \cdot b^3 = 108.

Rewrite the left-hand side of the second equation: a \cdot b^{3} = a \cdot b^2 \cdot b.

Substitute the first equation a \cdot b^{2} = 36 into the second:

a \cdot b^2 \cdot b = 108.

36\, b = 108.

\displaystyle b = \frac{108}{36} = 3.

Substitute b = 3 into either equation (for example, the first equation) and solve for a:

a \cdot 3^2 = 36.

a = 4.

Hence, the exponential function f(x) = a\cdot b^{x} = 4 \times (3)^{x} should satisfy the requirements of this question.

Simplify expression X^2+x-2/x^3-x^2+2x-2
professor190 [17]

Answer:


=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2} is the simplest form of given expression.


Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is \frac{x^2+x-2}{x^3-x^2+2x-2}


To solve the problem we have to group or split middle term and then factorise


\frac{x^2+(2x-x)-2}{(x^3-x^2)+(2x-2)}


Taking x^2 common from first two terms of denominator and 2 from next two terms


= \frac{x^2+2x-x-2}{x^2(x-1)+2(x-1)}


Now,taking x common from first two terms of numerator and -1 from next two terms and in denominator taking(x-1) common from both terms


= \frac{ x(x+2)-1(x+2)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}



=\frac{(x+2)(x-1)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}


Now cancel out x-1 from both numerator and denominator we get


=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2} is the required simplest form.

An online camping gear company ships two camping tents to a customer. Each tent weighs 6 lb 10 oz,. What is their combined weigh
dezoksy [38]
<em>The answer is 13 pounds (lbs.) and 4 ounces (oz.). There are 2 tents and each is 6 pounds. Add those together and that is 12 pounds. All that is left is to add the ounces. 10+10=20. Since there are only 16 ounces in a pound and we have 20 ounces, we add an extra pound and are left with 4 ounces. </em>
