Geraldine is asked to explain the limits on the range of an exponential equation using the function f(x) = 2x. She makes these two statements:1. As x increases infinitely, the y-values are continually doubled for each single increase in x.2. As x decreases infinitely, the y-values are continually halved for each single decrease in x.

A
Statement 1 is incorrect because the y-values are increased by 2, not doubled.
B
Statement 2 is incorrect because the y-values are doubled, not halved.
C
The conclusion is incorrect because the range is limited to the set of integers.
D
The conclusion is incorrect because the range is limited to the set of positive real numbers.

A limited-edition poster increases in value each year with an initial value of $18. After 1 year and an increase of 15% per year, the poster is worth $20.70. Which equation can be used to find the value, y, after x years? (Round money values to the nearest penny.)

A
y = 18(1.15)x
B
y = 18(0.15)x
C
y = 20.7(1.15)x
D
y = 20.7(0.15)x

After years of maintaining a steady population of 32,000, the population of a town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year and an increase of 8% per year, the population is 34,560. Which equation can be used to predict, y, the number of people living in the town after x years? (Round population values to the nearest whole number.)

A
y = 32,000(1.08)x
B
y = 32,000(0.08)x
C
y = 34,560(1.08)x
D
y = 34,560(0.08)x

How would the graph change if the b value in the equation is decreased but remains greater than 1? Check all that apply.

A
The graph will begin at a lower point on the y-axis.
B
The graph will increase at a faster rate.
C
The graph will increase at a slower rate.
D
The y-values will continue to increase as x-increases.
E
The y-values will each be less than their corresponding x-values.
