Question

Which exponential function goes through the points (1, 32) and (4, 2048)?

Answer 1

Exponential functions follow the format of
\[y=a*b^x\]
So we will just plug in values for y and x
\[32 = a*b^1\]
\[2048=a*b^4\]
Now we can do division so that \[2048/32=b^3\]
find b^3 and then plug back into one of the equations to solve for a
