Question

if (-3, y) lies on the graph of y = y= ( 1/4)x; then y =

Answer 1

Answer:

The ordered pair (-3,64) lies on the graph

The value of y=64

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a ordered pair lies on the graph of y

then

the ordered pair must satisfy the equation of y

In this problem we have

$y=(\frac{1}{4})^{x}$

For x=-3

substitute the value of x in the exponential equation

$y=(\frac{1}{4})^{-3}=4^3=64$

therefore

The ordered pair (-3,64) lies on the graph

The value of y=64
