Which of the following is the function representing the graph below?

Question

graph begins in the second quadrant near the x-axis and increases slowly while crossing the ordered pair 0, 1. When the graph enters the first quadrant, it begins to increase quickly throughout the graph. Select one: A. f(x) = 4^x B. f(x) = 4^x - 3 C. f(x) = 4^x + 3 D. f(x) = 4^(x + 3)

Answer 1

This is the graph of and exponential equation. All you need to do is to look at these equations and substitute 0 for x and see if your answer is 1 since the graph passes through the the point(0,1)

Choice A is y= 4^x when you substitute 0 for x you get y=4^0 which is 1 so choice A is the correct choice. If you like you can try this with the other choices and you will see that substituting 0 for x will not give you 1
