Question 399600
 write an exponential function of the form y = ab^x whose graph passes through the points given. (2, 12) (3, 144)
-----
144 = ab^3
12  = ab^2
------------
Divide and solve for "b":
12 = b
-----
Solve for "a":
12 = ab^2
12 = a*12^2
a = 1/12
----
Equation:
y = (1/12)*12^x
y = 12^(x-1)
