Question

Graph the equation on paper, and then choose the correct graph.y=4x+1Choose the correct graph

Answer 1

Given:

`y=4^x+1`

When x=0,

`y=4^0+1`
`y=2`

When x=1,

`\begin{gathered} y=4+1 \\ y=5 \end{gathered}`

When x=2,

`\begin{gathered} y=4^2+1 \\ y=17 \end{gathered}`

When x=-1,

`\begin{gathered} y=4^{-1^{}}+1 \\ y=(1)/(4)+1 \\ y=1.25 \end{gathered}`

When x=-2,

`\begin{gathered} y=4^(-2)+1 \\ y=(1)/(4^2)+1 \\ y=1.0625 \end{gathered}`

Option A is the correct answer.
