Question

The functions f(x) and g(x) are described using the following equation and table:

f(x) = -3(1.02)x


x

g(x)
-1

-5
0

-3
1

-1
2

1



Which statement best compares the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x)?

Answer 1

@DanJS lemme rewrite that.

Answer 2

x g(x)
-1 -5
0 -3
1 -1
2 1

Answer 3

The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).
The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to 2 times the y-intercept of g(x).
The y-intercept of g(x) is equal to 2 times the y-intercept of f(x).
The y-intercept of g(x) is equal to 2 plus the y-intercept of f(x).

Answer 4

k

Answer 5

So .

f(x) = -3(1.02)^x

Answer 6

and

g(x) is the table of values?

Answer 7

The Y-intercept is when X=0

f(0) = -3(1.02)^0 = -3(1) = -3
Y-intercept of f(x) is y = -3

Answer 8

From the table for g(x)

g(0) = -3

Answer 9

The y intercepts are the same for both g(x) and f(x), y=-3

Answer 10

Okay :)
