a. y=x^2
b. y=2x^2
c. y=2x^2
d. y=2(2)^x

Answer 1

I need help I really have no idea. I've tried doing guess and check by graphing the four equations but none of them make sense..... Please help

Answer 2

I would assume that it would not be a b or c since those are all parabolas.

Answer 3

Only one of those equations models an exponential growth.

Answer 4

When I graphed a it was a parabola too. When I graphed d it looked like the same shape.. just not in the right spot. It was more positive then the graph shows.
