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

Mathematics
1 answer:
AURORKA [14]3 years ago

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.

What is the value of x in the equation 8x-2y=48, when y=4
Oksanka [162]
8x - 2y = 48,  y =4

8x - 2(4) = 48
8x - 8 = 48
8x = 48+8
8x  = 56
x = 56/8 = 7

x = 7

What is the value of the third quartile of the data set represented by this box plot?
elena55 [62]
Answer: Since you didn't include the picture, I can give you the description so you know how to pick the correct answer.

The third quartile of a data is always shown in a box plot. In the middle of your graph should be a box. The third quartile is the value that goes with the far right edge of the box.

What slope would make the lines<br> parallel?<br> y = -3x + 9<br> y = [?]x + 4
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 3x + 9 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 3x + 4 ← is the equation of a parallel line
