Which of these values for p and a will cause the function f(x)=Pax to be an exponential growth function

The option are missing in the question. The options are :

A.  P = 2, a = 1

B.  $P=\frac{1}{2} ;  a =\frac{1}{3}$

C. $P=\frac{1}{2} ;  a =1$

D. P = 2, a = 3

Solution :

The given function is $f(x)= Pa^x$

So for the function to be an exponential growth, a should be a positive number and should be larger than 1. If it less than 1 or a fraction, then it is a decay. If the value of a is negative, then it would be between positive and negative alternately.

When the four option being substituted in the function, we get

A). It is a constant function since $2(1^x)=2$

B). Here, the value of a is a fraction which is less than 1, so it is a decay function. $f(x)=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^x$

C). It is a constant function since the value of a is 1.

D). Here a = 3. So substituting, as the value of x increases by 1, the value of the function, f(x) increases by 3 times.

  $f(x)=2(3)^x$

Therefore, option (D). represents an exponential function.

Answer: Choice C) 10.5

The distance from A to C is 7 units (count out the spaces between the two points, or subtract y coordinates 4-(-3) = 4+3 = 7)

Let AC = 7 be the base of the triangle. You might want to rotate the image so that AC is laying horizontally rather than being vertical.

Now move to point P. Walk 3 spaces to the right until you land on segment AC. This shows that the height of the triangle is 3 when the base is AC = 7.

base = 7, height = 3

area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height

area of triangle = 0.5*7*3

area of triangle = 10.5 square units
