To determine the equation of the
exponential function that fits the given graph, we can analyze any two points
provided. We can use the points (0, 1) and (1, 4) from the graph.
The general form of an exponential function
is , where a is the initial value and b is the base.
For the point (0, 1)
Substitute x = 0 and y = 1 into the
equation
