document.write( "Question 589682: I'm in alegebra 1 and i cant figure out how to make a function so that i can graph an equation. one of the problems look like y=4 with an x as an exponent. I've read through the book but i still cant seem to understand any of it. It doesnt describe how to put it in a function. I know how to graph it . I just dont know how to make it into a function. \n" ); document.write( "

a function so that i can graph an equation.

\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = \"4%5Ex\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = f(x)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "graph this equation
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"4%5Ex\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Make a table of x=0 to x=3
\n" ); document.write( " x | y | calculation
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( " 0 | 1 | any number with a 0 exponent is = 1
