Answer:

Option (1) increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let an exponential function is having common ratio = 3 ( greater than 1) and y-intercept = -1

So the function is,  [tex]f(x)=3^{x}-2[/tex]

Now we prepare a table for the values of x and f(x),

x          -1          0        1        2

f(x)      -1.67     -1        1        7

We find from the table that the values of the function are increasing with the increase in the values of x.

Therefore, Option (1) increase will be the answer.

Answer:

THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER

1. decrease

2. increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey I am obviously too late to help you but this might help others. I did the algebra nation and well it's "decrease" for the first one since the y- intercept is negative.

It is "increase" for the second one because the y-intercept is positive.

I dont exactly know how this works but this is my guess:

alright so lets try this:

If you have for example

-y=2^3-100    simplify    -y=-92    simplify   y=92

and then we have

-y=2^4-100    simplify    -y=-84    simplify    y=84

so you can see as X increases, Y decreases.

FOR THE SECOND ONE:

lets try this:

y=2^2    y=4

and

y=2^3    y=8

I am sorry if this explanation is not correct but at least you have the correct answer for this question.
