A company launches 4 new products. The market price, in dollars, of the 4 products after a different number of years, x, is shown in the following table:

Product Function Year 1
(dollars) Year 2
(dollars) Year 3
(dollars)
Product 1 f(x) = 4x + 8 12 16 20
Product 2 g(x) = 2^x 2 4 8
Product 3 h(x) = x^2 + 12 13 16 21
Product 4 j(x) = x^3 1 8 27


Based on the data in the table, for which product does the price eventually exceed all others?
Product 1
Product 2
Product 3
Product 4

It’s product two right???

Product 4 after the third year is 27 which is higher than the rest after 3 years.

And because x is raised to the third, the amount would Increase by being raised to the 3rd every year.

The answer is Product 4.
