Question

Which function represents the data in the table?

Answer 1

First choice

y = 3ˣ

Explanation:

It is easier if you examine the obviously wrong choices

Choice 2, y = 9x is incorrect because at x = 0, y = 9x should be 0, instead it is 1

Choice 3 , y = 3x is incorrect for the same reason

Choice 4 y = x³ is incorrect because at x = 0, x³ should be 0, instead it is 1

Correct choice is the first one: y = 3ˣ

Let's check:

x = 0, y = 3⁰ = 1 because any number raised to the power 0 is 1

x = 1, y = 3¹ = 3; because any number raised to the power 1 is 1itself

x = 2; y = 3² = 9 ; so fts

You can test out the rest of the entries yourself
