Question

In general, the point
is on the graph of the function f(x)= a•b^x
O A. (b. o)
O B. (a, b)
OC. (0, 0)
OD. (0, a)

Answer 1

Answer:

we conclude that when we put the ordered pair (0, a), both sides of the function equation becomes the same.

Therefore, the point (0, a) is on the graph of the function f(x) = abˣ

Hence, option (D) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x) = abˣ

Let us substitute all the points one by one

FOR (b, 0)

y = abˣ

putting x = b, y = 0

0 = abᵇ

FOR (a, b)

y = abˣ

putting x = a, y = b

b = abᵃ

FOR (0, 0)

y = abˣ

putting x = 0, y = 0

0 = ab⁰

0 = a         ∵b⁰ = 1

FOR (0, a)

y = abˣ

putting x = 0, y = a

a = ab⁰

a = a         ∵b⁰ = 1

TRUE

Thus, we conclude that when we put the ordered pair (0, a), both sides of the function equation becomes the same.

Therefore, the point (0, a) is on the graph of the function f(x) = abˣ

Hence, option (D) is correct.
