Plot the data for the functions ƒ(x) and g(x) on a grid. x -2 -1 0 1 2 ƒ(x) 1 4 16 x -1 0 1 2 3 g(x) 3 4 5 6 7 b. identify each function as linear, quadratic, or exponential, and use complete sentences to explain your choices. c. describe what happens to the function values in each function as x increases from left to right. d. at what value(s) of x are the function values equal? if you cannot give exact values for x, give estimates.

Part A:

The plot for the function f(x) and g(x) is attached. The purple curve represents f(x) and the black line represents g(x).

Part B:

The graph of f(x) shows that f(x) is an exponential function.
The graph of g(x) shows that g(x) is a linear function.

Part C:

As x increases from left to right, the function f(x) increases very rapidly.
As x increases from left to right, the function f(x) increases at a constant rate.

Part D:

From the graph it can be seen than the valus of x for which the values of the function are equal are: x = -4 and x = 1.19.
