Question 188774: can you please help me solve this problem?!


Given the equation +y=3%5Ex+ , if you were to increase the base to 5, what would it do to the shape of the graph?
a.The graph would show a decreasing trend rather than an increasing trend
b.The graph would appear wider, away from the y-axis sooner, showing a slower increasing trend
c.The graph would appear skinnier, closer to the y-axis, showing a quicker increasing trend.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For each value of x, y would be
greater. The greater the value of x,
the greater the increase in y.
That would move the graph closer to the
y-axis. (c) is the answer
