Determine whether f is an exponential function of x. if so, find the constant ratio

Sagot :

The constant ratio of the function f is its growth rate

The function f is an exponential function with a constant ratio of 2

How to determine if the function is an exponential function?

To do this, we simply divide the consecutive function values

From the complete question (see attachment for the table), we have:

f(-1) = 1/4

f(0) = 1/2

f(1) = 1

f(2) = 2

Divide the function values to get the ratio, r

r = f(2)/f(1) = f(1)/f(0) = f(0)/f(-1)

This gives

r = 2/1 = 1 / 1/2 = 1/2 / 1/4

Evaluate the quotients

r = 2 = 2 = 2

The value of r is the same for the three quotients.

Hence, the function f is an exponential function with a constant ratio of 2
