Dolphan:

So I was doing this a couple of weeks ago. Is this asking for the rule?

Dolphan:

Or do you guys do Mx+b?

TinoTheTurtle:

definitely not, i think its asking to create an equation out of the table given, ive been struggling a bit.

Dolphan:

Alright. Well I believe on my end. That If you look at 0 its 16 right. and then X side goes to 1 and then it goes down, 8. So we know that it is subtracting.

Dolphan:

But by how much is it subtracting by, @tinotheturtle ?

TinoTheTurtle:

8!

TinoTheTurtle:

wait no

Dolphan:

It's doubling.

Dolphan:

Look at the 3. and Then 2 and 1

Dolphan:

It's all numbers, being doubled.

Dolphan:

4 is being doubled if you really think about it

Dolphan:

Times -2 I believe

TinoTheTurtle:

now you've lost me.. are we reading from top to bottom or bottom to top?

Dolphan:

The middle. It starts at 0. And if you look at it both ways, it multiplys by -2

TinoTheTurtle:

exactly, so what you said technically isn't wrong at all. It doubles or multiplies by 4.

Dolphan:

Basically lmao. My brain is going wild

TinoTheTurtle:

so i think an reasonable equation could be y=16(4)^8=32 i think idk

ButteredBalz:

Yep.

TinoTheTurtle:

im gonna try it to see if its wrong or not

wdym* apolgies

jhonyy9:

x is the variable

TinoTheTurtle:

oh, you have a very good point.

jhonyy9:

write an equation

jhonyy9:

exponential equation with variable x what result these y values

TinoTheTurtle:

I am very confused now @jhonyy9

TinoTheTurtle:

you want me to write an exponential equation with the variable x?

jhonyy9:

yes from what for these variables of x from this given table will result these necessary y values

ive been here for at least 10 minutes tryna do this equation man lol, i know the beginning of the equation starts with "y=16" im just struggling to find what goes in the power position.
