Find the exponential function of the given form that contains the given points.
Form: f(x)= c*(a^x)
Points: (0,4) and (4, 324)
I know the answer is f(x)=4*3^x,
Form: y = c*a^x
----------------------
Using (4,324) and (0,4) you get:
324 = c*a^4
4 = c*a^0
-------
Note:: c = 4
-----
Substitute and solve for "c":
324 = 4*a^4
81 = a^4
a = 3
------
Therefore y = 4*3^x
