Given the table below, determine if the data represents a linear or an exponential function and find a possible formula for the function. x 0 1 2 3 4 f (x) 12.5 13.75 15.125 16.638 18.301 a. Exponential; y = 12.5 (1.10) Superscript x c. Exponential; y = 1.10 (12.5) Superscript x b. Linear; y = 1.499x + 12.3648 d. Linear; 12.3648x + 1.499 Please select the best answer from the choices provided (edge2020)

jhonyy9:

so in case of what choice you think that for x= 0 you can get like result the 12,5 for f(x) ?

jhonyy9:

do you know what result an exponent of zero ? for example 3^0 = ?

jhonyy9:

ok remember pls every numbers or indifferent what on exponent zero will be equal 1 so in this case look pls on the first choice y = 12,5*(1,10)^0 = ? use what i ve wrote above

jhonyy9:

ohh now i see the user who posted this problem is offline

jhonyy9:

ok somebody for medal ?

jhonyy9:

do you can solve it now ?

supie:

Is it \(y=125\)?

supie:

\(12.5\)*

jhonyy9:

yes and what result from this ? what choice will be right ?

jhonyy9:

@supie

supie:

Exponential; y = 12.5 (1.10) Superscript x ??

jhonyy9:

yes exactly the first one

jhonyy9:

do you understand now ?

jhonyy9:

in case of the other choices you will get different results

jhonyy9:

the first one is the single choice where you get for x = 0 the y = 12,5

jhonyy9:

ok ? questions ?

supie:

no thanx @HalloDasBoy
