Answer:


y = 2(2) {}^(x)

Explanation:

It ask us to create a exponential function. A exponential function is represented by a equation like this


y = ab {}^(x)

where a is the vertical stretch, b is the constant rate of growth, and x is the nth exponet.

Using the point 0,2

we can plug that in to find a part of the equation above.

let x=0 and y=2


2 = ab {}^(0)


b {}^(0) = 1


2 = a * 1


a = 2

Let update the equation now since a equal 2


y = 2b {}^(x)

Now let use point 2,8 to find the b value

let x=2 and y=8


8 = 2b {}^(2)

Divide both sides by 2


4 = {b}^(2)

take the sqr root of 4


b = 2

Let update the equation


y = 2(2) {}^(x)
