Answer 2

Again, look at the handout:
http://faculty.gg.uwyo.edu/dueker/GeophysicsClass/Math%20Review/IG%20parent%20functons.pdf

The namesof the functions are below the graphs. Which one do you think it is?

Answer 3

Quad

Answer 4

i mean cubic*

Answer 5

Great!

Answer 6

Which of the following represents the graph of f(x) = 1 over 3 – 2 ?

Answer 7

could u help with this 1?

Answer 8

\[\large f(x) = \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{-2}\]

Answer 9

\[f(x)=(1/3)^{x}-2\]

Answer 10

\[\left(\begin{matrix}1 \\ 3\end{matrix}\right)\]

Answer 11

Is it a fraction \(\large \dfrac{1}{3}\) or is it a binomial coefficient \(\left(\begin{matrix}1 \\ 3\end{matrix}\right)\)??

Answer 12

fraction..

Answer 13

just playing?

Answer 14

I didn't understand how u put it like that show i tried lol

Answer 15

For a function of the form \(f(x) = b^x\):

If b > 1 then the graph will go up reading from left to right, like the first and last answer choices.

If 0<b<1, then the graph will go down reading from left to right, like the middle two answer choices.

For this question the base b = 1/3 which is between 0 and 1, so it has to be one of the middle two.

Can you guess which one?

Answer 16

Sorry. it doesnt matter anymore. I just got kicked out of my class. until the teacher talks to my parent. for doing the assignments to quickly.

Answer 17
