The function given is y = 12(17/10)^x.
To determine whether it represents exponential growth or exponential decay, we need to look at the base of the exponential term.
The base is (17/10) which is greater than 1. This means that as x increases, the value inside the exponential term will also increase, resulting in exponential growth.
Therefore, the answer is: a. exponential growth; 1.7
without graphing, determine whether the function represents exponential growth or exponential decay. then find the y-intercept.
y=12(17/10)^×
a. exponential growth;1.7
b. exponential decay;1.7
c. exponential growth;12
d. exponential decay;12
