Hello!

[tex]\large\boxed{y = 13(2)^x}}[/tex]

y = abˣ

We know that at x = 0, b = 1 because any number to the power of 0 = 1.

Therefore:

13 = a(1)

13 = a

Now, plug in this value to solve for b:

y = 13bˣ

Substitute in the next point:

416 = 13(b)⁵

Divide both sides by 13:

32 = b⁵

Take the 5th root of both sides:

2 = b

Rewrite:

y = 13(2)ˣ
