x 0 1 2 3 4

f(x) 12.5 13.75 15.125 16.638 18.301

If the change in x values and change in y values are constant then the data will be linear.

So, change in x from 0 to 1 is 1-0=1

Similarly change in x from 1 to 2 is 2-1=1

So, change in x's is constant in the given data.

Now let's check for change in y values.

Change in y from 12.5 to 13.75 is 13.75-12.5=1.25

Similarly change in y from 13.75 to 15.125 is 15.125-13.75=1.375

Changes in y's are not constant.

So, the given data is not linear.

Let's assume the exponential function is:

y=a(b)^x

Let's take any two points from the data and plug into the above equation to get the equation. Let's plug in the first point (0, 12.5) in the above function. So,

12.5=a(b)^0

12.5=a*1 Since b^0=1

So, a=12.5

Next step is to plug in the second point (1, 13.75) and a=12.5 in the same equation to get the value of b. Hence,

13.75=12.5(b)^1

13.75=12.5b

\frac{13.75}{12.5}=b Dividing each sides by 12.5.

So, b=1.1

Now we can plug in the value of a and b to get the exponential formula. Hence,

y=12.5(1.1)^x

So, the correct choice is a.

Answer:

f(x) 12.5 13.75 15.125 16.638 18.301

So, change in x from 0 to 1 is 1-0=1

Similarly change in x from 1 to 2 is 2-1=1

So, change in x's is constant in the given data.

Now let's check for change in y values.

Change in y from 12.5 to 13.75 is 13.75-12.5=1.25

Similarly change in y from 13.75 to 15.125 is 15.125-13.75=1.375

Changes in y's are not constant.

So, the given data is not linear.

(1Q) Describe how to transform the graph of g(x) = lnx into the graph of f(x)= ln(x-4)+3?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is to go 4 units right (the direction is opposite to the sign) and 3 units up. The up and down direction is the same number as after the function.

Red: Parent Function y = ln(x)

Blue: 4 units right. 3 units up.

Answer: B

What makes composing functions different from doing an arithmetic operation of two functions such as adding or dividing them?
11111nata11111 [884]

function composition is an operation that takes two functions f and g and produces a function h such that h(x) = g(f(x)). In this operation, the function g is applied to the result of applying the function f to x.
