Question

WILL GIVE BRAINIEST PLEASE WRITE IN ''f(x) = a(b)^x'' ORDERAn industrial copy machine has the ability to reduce image dimensions by a certain percentage each time it copies. A design began with a length of 16 inches, represented by the point (0,16). After going through the copy machine once, the length is 12, represented by the point (1,12).

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = 16*0.75^x

Step-by-step explanation:

first off let's use this coordinate (the one given) :

(0,16)

let's substitute this into the equation with x being 0 and f(x) being 16

16 = a*b^0

*anything to the power of 0 is 1*

so:

a = 16

now use the second coordinate :

(1,12)

and do the same by substituting 1 for x and 12 for f(x), we also know what 'a' is:

12 = 16*b^1

12 = 16 * b

b = 3/4

so :

f(x) = 16*0.75^x

Answer 2

Answer:

f(x) = 16(.75)^x
