To find the initial value of the function , follow these steps:

1.Understand the Function: The function is an exponential function where:

370 is the coefficient in front of the exponent.

0.71 is the base of the exponent.

2.Initial Value Definition: In an exponential function of the form , the initial value is the value of the function when x = 0. This value represents the starting point of the function before any changes due to the exponent.

3.Calculate f(0):

Substitute x = 0 into the function:
