Question

Graph the exponential function f(x)=4( 1/3)ˣ by plotting the vertical intercept and one other point. Then write the vertical intercept as an ordered pair.

a) (0,4)
b) (0,1)
c) (0,−4)
d) (0,−1)

Answer 1

The graph of the exponential function f(x) = 4 (1/3)ˣ is attached

The coordinate of the vertical intercept is

a) (0, 4)

Some features of the graph

The exponential function given in the problem has the equation

f(x) = 4 (1/3)ˣ

The key components are

• The starting function is 4

• The base is 1/3

From the base, we can say the the function is a decay function
