The graph of an exponential function and a linear function are shown below. which statement is true about the functions? the exponential function is generally growing slower than the linear function. the exponential function is generally growing faster than the linear function. the linear function is generally growing faster than the exponential function. the exponential function and the linear function are generally growing at the same rate.

When , you will look at the graph of exponential function ,it passes through the points (0,1),(1,2),(2,4),(3,8)...

It means, y coordinate is changing square of x coordinate.

So, the exponential function can be written as

Now, coming to linear function, it passes through (0,0),(1,2),(2,4)...

So, it's equation can be written as ,or can be derived also, but i have written directly, because it passes through origin

y=2 x

Option B: The exponential function is generally growing faster than the linear function is true statement.

the circle graph is not a function.

step-by-step explanation:

the graph of the circle is not a function.

because for a graph to be a function, each value of x must give one value of y

in the circle, the values of x for -2< x< 2 each give 2 values of y.

hence this is not a function.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
