The table below shows the values of f(x) and g(x) for different values of x. One of the functions is a quadratic function, and the other is an exponential function. Which function is most likely increasing exponentially? x f(x) g(x)
1 3 3
2 6 9
3 11 27
4 18 81
5 27 243
A. f(x), because it eventually exceeds g(x)
B. g(x), because it eventually exceeds f(x)
C. f(x), because it eventually intersects g(x)
D. g(x), because it will not intersect f(x)
