Question

HELP ILL GIVE 50 POINTS.!!

Write an exponential function in the form y=ab^xy=ab x that goes through points (0, 3)(0,3) and (5, 3072)(5,3072).

Answer 1

y=3(4) x

Explanation:

Answer 2

Using the equation y = abx , substitute both of your given points into that equation.

2 = ab2 and 4 = ab3 Solve each equation for a.

2⁄b2 and 4⁄b3 = a Therefore, 2⁄b2 = 4⁄b3

Cross multiply: 2b3 = 4b2 Divide both sides by b2

2b = 4 a = 2/4 = 1/2

b = 2

y = 1 (2)x

2 hopefully this helped.
