What is the slope of the following graph?

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2

answer:

at time x=0 we have 1000, at time x=1 we have 2000, at time x=2 we have 4000.  

so that's an initial value of 1000 and a ratio of 2,

y = 1000 (2^x)

hope this !
