Which function represents the scenario below? *
B. Baseball Card
You purchased a valuable baseball card. Every year it doubles in value.
x = years that have passed since purchase y = value of the card
y = 10 - 0.2x
Option 1
y = 12 * (2) ^ x
Option 2
How much will the baseball card be worth 5 years after the purchase? *
O $44
O $120
O $22
O $384
To determine how much the baseball card will be worth 5 years after the purchase, we can plug x = 5 into the equation.
Using option 1: y = 12 * (2) ^ x
y = 12 * (2) ^ 5
y = 12 * 32
y = 384
Therefore, the baseball card will be worth $384 5 years after the purchase.
The correct option is:
O $384
