Answer:

  • The graph curves upward.
  • The y-intercept is at (0, 25).
  • The graph is in the first quadrant.

Step-by-step explanation:

See below for a graph.

You can see it has a y-intercept of (0, 25) and curves upward through the first quadrant.

An exponential function will normally occupy quadrants 1 and 2, but the domain of this function is years after purchase. So, only non-negative values of x are in the domain. That limits the graph to the first quadrant.

The general form of the equation for this function is ...

  value = (initial value)×(1 + growth rate)^(years)

  value = 25·(1 +.02)^x
