Question

Which of the following could represent an exponential function of the form y = f(x) = A * b^x, where b > 1?

I was doing well until I came upon this problem. I have literally no idea. Completely 0.

Answer 2

Two hints:

a) Plot the points given in the table. Then draw a curve through the points.

b) if b > 1, then the exponential function will grow away from the x axis. If b < 1, then the exponential curve will decay and approach the x axis.

Answer 4

Upon being graphed. The exponential function is going away from the x-axis so b > 1

Answer 5

Thats for I

Answer 6

III is below the x-axis so its b < 1 right?

Answer 7

does the graph for III approach the x axis?

as x goes to positive infinity, does y get closer to 0?

Answer 8

Yes, it does seem to be approaching the x-axis. It goes from the right to the left

Answer 9

I'm going to draw 4 xy axes for 4 graphs

Answer 10

here is number III graphed

Answer 11

Here is I graphed

Answer 12

The top two will represent when b > 1

The bottom 2 will represent when b < 1
