Question

Evaluate 3x for x = −2, x = 1, and x = 3. Question 18 options: A) 1∕3, 0, 9 B) 1∕9, 3, 27 C) 9, 3, 27 D) 1∕9, 9, 27

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer: B) 1/9, 3, 27

Answer 2

Answer: B) 1/9, 3, 27

Explanation:

Here, we need to evaluate
`3^x` for
`x = -2, x = 1, \text{ and } x = 3.`

So, we substitute values of x in the given function.

At x= -2, we have

`3^(-2)=(1)/(3^2)=(1)/(9)\ \ \ [\because\ a^(-n)=(1)/(a^n)]`

At x= 1, we have

`3^1=3`

At x= 3

`3^3=3*3*3=27`

So, the values of
`3^x` for

Thus, the correct answer is B) 1/9, 3, 27
