Question

question 15 (multiple choice worth 1 points)
(determining function types mc)

given the function (y = 2.4(10^x) - 23), determine its type.

• cube root
• exponential
• quadratic
• square root

Explanation:

Analyze the form of the given function

$$ y = 2.4(10^x) - 23 $$

Identify the variable position and base

The independent variable \(x\) is located in the exponent of the base \(10\), which is a positive constant not equal to \(1\).

Match with standard function types

A function of the form \(y = a \cdot b^x + c\) is classified as an exponential function.

Answer:

• Cube root
• Exponential (Correct answer)
• Quadratic
• Square root
