Which set of ordered pairs could be generated by an exponential function? A)(negative 1, negative one-half), (0, 0), (1, one-half), (2, 1) B) (–1, –1), (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 8) C) (negative 1, one-half), (0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 4) D)(–1, 1), (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The set C could be generated by an exponential function. The main reason is that exponential functions hava a restricted range, it can't have negative numbers or the number zero, because power can only be equal or greater than 1.

Additionally, for all exponentials, a null exponent gives 1 as an answer, so point (0, 1) is always present in an exponential function.

Therefore, the right answer is C.

< xcy ≅ < xby

step-by-step explanation:

in δcax and δbax,

so, δcax ≅ δbax (side-angle-side or sas)

since δcax ≅ δbax, we can conclude < acx ≅ < abx

in δacy and δaby,

so, δacy ≅ δaby (side-angle-side or sas)

since δacy ≅ δaby, we can conclude < acy ≅ < aby

now,

< acy ≅ < aby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < abx + < xby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < acx + < xby   (since < acx ≅ < abx already proved above)

subtracting < acx from both sides, we get

< acx + < xcy -< acx ≅ < acx + < xby -< acx

cancelling out < acx and -< acx from both sides, we get

< xcy ≅ < xby (proved)
