Respuesta :

By hit and trial of each option and also by graph, solutions to f(x) = 3ˣ and  g(x)=2x-1 will be 0 and 1.

given functions are,

[tex]f(x) = 3^x\\\\g(x) = 2x+1[/tex]

let us put x=0

f(0) = 1

g(0) = 1

f(0)=g(0)=1

so 0 will be a solution.

let us put x=1

f(1)= 3

g(1) = 3

f(1)=g(1)=3

so 1 will be also a solution

let us put x=2

f(2) = 9

g(2) = 5

f(2)≠g(2)

so 2 will not be solution.

x=-2 and x=-1 clearly will not be solution because,

g(-2) = negative value but f(x) cannot be negative, being an exponential function.

what is an exponential function?

Any function in form f(x)= pˣ, where p≥1, is called an exponential function.

therefore, solutions to f(x) = g(x) will be 0 and 1.
