The ordered pairs (1,6), (2,36), (3,216), (4,1296), and (5,7776) represent a function. What is a rule that represents this function?

Well the the rule is mostly in the y coordinates, they are all powers of 6

6^1=6
6^2=36
6^3=216
6^4=1296

the x coordinates are just increasing by one

based on that information you can write a rule on how it is changing using x and y

so

x+n=6^x=n

since you add the value of n (be it one or two) and whatever number you get you raise 6 to that value.
Thank you
thats wierd on mine the first ordered pair is (0,1)
same mine was too ^
