HELP ASAP Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
The function fis given by the table of values as shown below.
х |1 |2 |3 |4 |5
f(x) |9 |11 |15 |23 |39
Use the given table to complete the statements.
The parent function of the function represented in the table is
If function fwas translated up 5 units, the
-values would be
A point in the table for the transformed function would be

Step-by-step explanation:

a) First differences of the f(x) values in the table are ...  

 19 -13 = 6, 37 -19 = 18, 91 -37 = 54, 253 -91 = 162  

The second differences are not constant:  

 18 -6 = 12, 54 -18 = 36, 162 -54 = 108  

But, we notice that both the first and second differences have a common ratio. This is characteristic of an exponential function. The common ratio is 18/6 = 3, so the parent function is 3^x

b) Translating a function down 4 units subtracts 4 from each y-value. The values of f(x) in the table would be ...  

 9, 15, 33, 87, 249

c) The x-values of the function stay the same for a vertical translation, so the points in the table of the transformed function are ...  

 (x, f(x)) = (1, 9), (2, 15), (3, 33), (4, 87), (5, 249)
