1) Since the initial value is 6, and each step we multiply that by 4. Then we can write:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=6(4)^2 \\ y=6(4.4) \\ y=6(16) \\ y=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]
This is the same as multiplying 6 by 4 and 24 by 4.
2) As with y=6(4)^x, x can assume values like 0,-1, 2, etc. When x=0, we multiply that 6 by 4, but when x=-1, we'll multiply that y 1/4.
3) Hence, the answer is y=6(4)²
