Question

Chelsea is graphing the function f(x) = 20()x. She begins by plotting the initial value. Which graph represents her first step?

ik is either c or d

Answer 1

The answer you are looking for is C. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

we have the function

`f(x)=20((1)/(4))^(x)`

we know that

In the equation of the exponential function of the form

`f(x)=a(b)^(x)`

a is the initial value

b is the base

x is the exponent

The initial value is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to zero

in this problem

for
`x=0`

`f(0)=20((1)/(4))^(0)`

`f(0)=20(1)=20`

the initial value is the point
`(0,20)`

therefore
