Answer:

x = 1.79 to x = 3

Explanation:

I think this is correct because the linear function grows at a constant rate so the point where the exponential function's line starts going up faster means that the growth rate is increasing. At the point (1.79,7.17) is when both lines intersect but the exponential function is growing at a faster rate than the linear function.
