Evaluate each function in function notation for x=7 and compare the outcomes.
f(x)=100x^2
Practice makes perfect
We want to determine which of the functions has the greater value for the given value of x.
First function:& f(x)=2^x
Second function:& f(x)=100x^2
Value:& x=10
To do so, we will evaluate each function in function notation for x=7 and compare the outcomes. Let's start by substituting 10 for x in the rule for the first function.
