Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the exponential function:


f(x)=3^x

We will proceed to plot 5 points on the graph as shown below:


\begin{gathered} f(x)=3^x \\ when:x=-3 \\ f(-3)=3^(-3)=(1)/(3^3)=(1)/(27) \\ (x,y)=(-3,(1)/(27)) \\ \\ when:x=-1 \\ f(-1)=3^(-1)=(1)/(3) \\ (x,y)=(-1,(1)/(3)) \\ \\ when:x=0 \\ f(0)=3^0=1 \\ (x,y)=(0,1) \\ \\ when:x=1 \\ f(1)=3^1=3 \\ (x,y)=(1,3) \\ \\ when:x=2 \\ f(2)=3^2=9 \\ (x,y)=(2,9) \end{gathered}

We will proceed to plot thes points, we have:
