Question

Which function below grows at the fastest rate for increasing values of x?

Question 7 options:

f(x)=8x+6

g(x)=3x^2−2

h(x)=3^x

j(x)=50x+1

Answer 1

Assuming you mean increasing values of y, the answer would be C. The first and last answer are both linear, the second is quadratic, and the third is exponential, so while it might increase slowly at first, it will increase faster at the same difference of x compared to a quadratic.
