Welcome to OpenStudy!

Caution:  Your " f(x) = 3(1.7)4x" is vague.  I believe you mean  " f(x) = 3(1.7)^(4x)."
Please use the " ^ " symbol to denote exponentiation.

Can you think of a way to simplify (reduce to lowest terms)   " f(x) = 3(1.7)^(4x)"?

$$f(x) = 3(1.7)^{4x}$$

Please re-write the following:

 f(x) = 25.06x
 f(x) = 3(8.35)x
 f(x) = 3(8.25x)
 f(x) = 487.97x

using the " ^ " to denote exponentiation.
