Question

without graphing, determine whether the function represents exponential growth or exponential decay. then find the y-intercept. f(x)=3(0.59)^x

Answer 1

y-intercept 3

Explanation:

Answer 2

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

exponential growth , y-intercept 3

Discussion:

Any equation of the form b^x (b a constant) models exponential growth.

The y-intercept value is the value of y when x = 0, that is,

y = 3 (0.59)^0 = 3 * 1 = 3

Thank you,
