Question

need help with math algebra 2 is very hard and i don’t understand it

Answer 1

Given:

$y=b^x$

Find: the value of "b"

Sol:

Check for different values so.

$y=b^x$

At "y = 2" value of "x" is -1 then check .

$\begin{gathered} y=b^x \\ \\ y=2,x=-1 \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

Put the value of "x" and "y" then:

$\begin{gathered} y=b^x \\ \\ 2=b^{-1} \\ \\ 2=\frac{1}{b} \\ \\ b=\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ b=0.5 \end{gathered}$

So the value of "b" is 0.5
