Math Help?
Please present the problem FIRST and then ask for whatever specific help you need.
Will you help me? y = 5•2x The graph is a parabola with vertex (0, 5). The graph is of exponential decay. The graph is of exponential growth. The graph is an absolute value function with vertex (0, 5). I have another one also.
First please verify that I understand what you have typed in: y = 5 times (2x) I suspect that some key info is missing here.
that is what it ask me in the question
Describe the graph of the function.
5 times 2x is simply 10 x. Describe the graph of y = 10x. What is the slope? the y-intercept?
it is either A or D. A-The graph is a parabola with vertex (0, 5). D-The graph is an absolute value function with vertex (0, 5).
@jim_thompson5910
The equation is this? \[\Large y = 5*2^x\]
Yes
Use this grapher https://www.desmos.com/calculator and tell/show me what you get
you'll need to type in `y = 5*2^x` the `^` means exponent
The graph is a parabola with vertex (0, 5).?
show me what graph you got
that's NOT a parabola a parabola is something like this |dw:1449113945583:dw| notice how it's symmetrical and U shaped. What you have is an exponential curve. Is it growing? or decaying?
exponential growth?
yep, it keeps going up forever
what about this one?
use polynomial long division or synthetic division
this article may help http://www.purplemath.com/modules/polydiv2.htm
When I do I get this. @jim_thompson5910
I recommend doing it by hand. Don't rely on a calculator or solver
For the answer is it - or +?
