given the table of values, determine the base for the exponential function. explain how you got it!

a.

b. 9

c.

d. 3

Pick any value in the y column of the table. I'm going to pick 81. Divide the value you picked by the previous y value, which in my case would be 9

Dividing the values gives: 81/9 = 9

So the base is 9. We multiply each y value by 9 to get the next y value
Eg: to go from 1/81 to 1/9, we multiply by 9. Same for 1/9 to 1, and so on.

Choice B) 9

Note: This trick only works because x is increasing by 1 each time

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the answer is 18.
