You can put this solution on YOUR website!
given: y=o.6%5Ex for ...I believe should be -4%3C=x%3C=4 not 4%3C=x%3C=4 as posted above
a.
make first table
x|y
-4|7.7
-3|4.6
-2|2.8
-1|1.7
0|1
1|0.6
2|0.4
3|0.2
4|0.13


b. use the graph to solve the equation +%280.6%29%5Ex+=+2
as you can see, for x+=+-1.4 we have +%280.6%29%5Ex+=+2....the green line that I put on a graph shows you the point
(-1.4,2)
