To find the missing value for \( f(4) \) using the given exponential function \( f(x) = 3(1.2)^x \), we can substitute \( x = 4 \) into the equation.

\[
f(4) = 3(1.2)^4
\]

Now, we need to calculate \( (1.2)^4 \):

\[
(1.2)^4 = 1.2 \times 1.2 \times 1.2 \times 1.2
\]
Calculating step-by-step:

1. \( 1.2 \times 1.2 = 1.44 \)
2. \( 1.44 \times 1.2 = 1.728 \)
3. \( 1.728 \times 1.2 = 2.0736 \)

Now we can use this result to find \( f(4) \):

\[
f(4) = 3 \times 2.0736 = 6.2208
\]

Finally, rounding to two decimal places, we have:

\[
f(4) \approx 6.22
\]

Thus, the missing value in the table is:

\[
\boxed{6.22}
\]

Cason is scheduled to get his wisdom teeth removed. The oral surgeon gives him a local anesthetic to numb his mouth before surgery. Cason is given 320 milligrams of the anesthetic, which metabolizes at a rate of 25% per hour. The situation can be modeled using the exponential equation f(x)=320(0.75)x
. Finish the chart to determine which graph displays the correct plotted points for the situation.

Option #1:

A decreasing curve with an arrow at the end is plotted on a coordinate plane. The x-axis for hours ranges from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. The y-axis for milligrams ranges from 0 to 350 in increments of 50.



Option #2:

A curve with an arrow on the top is plotted on a coordinate plane. The x-axis for hours ranges from 0 to 350 in increments of 50. The y-axis for milligrams ranges from 0 to 7 in increments of 1.



Option #3:

A decreasing curve with an arrow at the end is plotted on a coordinate plane. The x-axis for hours ranges from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. The y-axis for milligrams ranges from 0 to 350 in increments of 50.
