The graph shows the functions f(x), p(x), and g(x):

Graph of function g of x is y is equal to 1 plus the quantity 1.5 raised to the power of x. The straight line f of x joins ordered pairs 4, 1 and 2, negative 3 and is extended on both sides. The straight line p of x joins the ordered pairs 0, 2 and 1, negative 5 and is extended on both sides.
