The table below shows the values of f(x) and g(x) for different values of x. One of the functions is a quadratic function, and the other is an exponential function. Which function is most likely increasing exponentially?


x f(x) g(x)
1 3 3
2 6 9
3 11 27
4 18 81
5 27 243

Respuesta :

Considering the table given, it is found that function g(x) is most likely an exponential function.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

In which:

  • a is the initial value.
  • b is the rate of change.

From this, we get that when x changes by 1, the value of y is multiplied by a constant, and this constant is b, which is the rate of change.

From the given functions, when x changes by 1, in g(x) the function is multiplied, hence function g(x) is most likely an exponential function.
