Acompany launches 4 new products. the market price, in dollars, of the four products after a different number of years, x, is shown in the following table: product 1 | f(x)=3^x |$3 | $9| $27 product 2 | g(x)= x^2+4| $5 | $8 | $13 product 3 |h(x)=3x+8| $11| $14| $17 product 4 | j(x) = x^3| $1 | $8 | $27 based on the data table, for which product does the price eventually exceed the others? a. product 1 b. product 2 c. product 3 d. product 4

  A. product 1

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function (with a base larger than 1) will eventually exceed the value of any polynomial function. Product 1 has a price described by an exponential function, so its price will exceed all others. (One only need to compute the values for x=4 to see this.)

_____

The attachment extends the table and plots the functions up to the point where Product 1 exceeds the others.

you would need to also lose 1 point for each of the other outcomes for it to be fair.
