Algebra.Com's Answer #282569 by lwsshak3(11628)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1) y=2^x^2=2^x*2^x \n" ); document.write( "This is the same as y=2^2x. Remember the rule in algebra? Raising any number or variable to a power,results in a single term with its exponent= product of the individual exponents. With the variable in the exponent this is an exponential function\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2)10x+7-y=0 \n" ); document.write( "Change it to standard form, y=10x+7, and you can see it is a straight line (linear function) with slope=10 and y-intercept at 7\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3)y=10^2^x \n" ); document.write( "This is the same as y=10^2x, Like 1),with the variable in the exponent this is an exponential function\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
