The multiplicative rate of change of the function is 3
From the question, we have the following ordered pairs
(-2, 2/9), (-1, 2/3), (0, 2), (1, 6), (2, 18), and (3, 54)
An exponential equation is represented as:
[tex]y =ab^x[/tex]
When x = 0, we have:
[tex]ab^0 = 2[/tex]
[tex]a = 2[/tex]
When x = 1, we have:
[tex]ab^1 = 6[/tex]
[tex]ab = 6[/tex]
Substitute 2 for a
[tex]2b = 6[/tex]
Solve for b
[tex]b = 3[/tex]
Hence, the multiplicative rate of change of the function is 3
