Q:

Please Help! Asap! Will Mark Brainliest!The functions f(x) and g(x) are described using the following equation and table:f(x) = −3(1.02)xx g(x)−1 −50 −31 −12 1Which statement best compares the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x)?A. The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).B. The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to 2 times the y-intercept of g(x).C. The y-intercept of g(x) is equal to 2 times the y-intercept of f(x).D. The y-intercept of g(x) is equal to 2 plus the y-intercept of f(x).

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:If correct equation f(x) = −3 + (1.02)x , then answer is A. The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).Step-by-step explanation:If the equation is f(x) = −3(1.02)x and written correctly, then its slope is -3.06, and y-intercept is 0.For x g(x) −1 −5 0 −3 1 −1 2 1 x=0, y = -3, so y-intercept is - 3.Because, no one of the answers is correct, most probably , the equation for f(x) is written incorrectly. It could be f(x) = −3 + (1.02)x . Then slope for this equation is = - 3. And correct answer would be A.
