a student was given two data sets set a and set b which of the following statements is true class=

Respuesta :

The answer is A. you can tell that set B is growing at a fast rate. and it overtook set A.

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set A.

x       -1      0      1         2         3      

y      50    75   100    125      150

Difference in each successive term of x = 1 - 0 = 1

Similarly difference in successive term of y = 75 - 25 = 50

So there is a common difference of 50 in each successive term of y.

We conclude that set A is a linear function.

Set B

x       -1         0        1        2         3

y     0.60      3       15      75      375

With a continuous increase of x there is a common ratio in successive terms

of y.

Common Ratio = [tex]\frac{3}{0.6}=\frac{15}{3}=5[/tex]

Therefore, this set represents an exponential function.

Since rate of increase in values of exponential function is faster than a linear function, values of set B is increasing faster.

Therefore, Option A is the correct option.
