An exponential function f ( x ) = a ⋅ b^x passes through the points (0, 11000) and (2, 5390). what are the values of a and b

The value of a is 11000 and the value of b is 5390 and this can be determined by using the given data.

Given :

An exponential function passes through the points (0, 11000) and (2, 5390).

The following steps can be used in order to determine the values of 'a' and 'b':

Step 1 - Write the given function.

Step 2 - Now, substitute the value of x and f(x) that is (0,11000) in the above function.

11000 = a

11000 = a

Step 3 - Now, again substitute the value of x and f(x) that is (2,5390) in the given function.

0.49 =

b = 0.7

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
