Problem N 26

In this table, we have an exponential growth function of the form


y=a(b^x)

For x=1, y=3.3


\begin{gathered} 3.3=a(b^1) \\ 3.3=a(b)\text{ --}\longrightarrow\text{ equation A} \end{gathered}

For x=4, y=10.1


10.1=a(b^4)\text{ ---}\longrightarrow\text{ equation B}

Divide equation B by equation A


(10.1)/(3.3)=(a(b^4)/(a(b))
