Given:
The function is:
[tex]f(x)=-4(1.09)^x[/tex]
The table of values for the function g(x).
To find:
The equation that best compares the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x).
Solution:
We have,
[tex]f(x)=-4(1.09)^x[/tex]
Putting [tex]x=0[/tex], we get
[tex]f(x)=-4(1.09)^0[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=-4(1)[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=-4[/tex]
So, the y-intercept of the function f(x) is -4.
From the given table of values, it is clear that the function f(x) passes through the point (0,-4). So, the y-intercept of the function g(x) is -4.
The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).
Therefore, the correct option is A.
