Q:

Given four functions, which one will have the smallest y-intercept?f(x) g(x) h(x) j(x)Blake is tracking hissavings account withan interest rate of 5%and a original depositof $6. x g(x)0 61 82 12 the function h of x equals 4 to the x power, plus 3 j(x) = 10(2)xf(x)g(x)h(x)j(x)

Accepted Solution

A:
The smallest y-intercept would be of the first function. (0, 6)

Since Blake is starting with $6, that is the y-intercept.

For the function, f(x) = 4^x + 3, the y-intercept is 7.
For the last function, f(x) = 10(2)^x , the y-intercept is 10.

6 is the lowest of 6, 7, and 10.
