Question

x y 1 11 2 19 3 a The table shows three values of x and their corresponding values of y for the equation y = 4 2 x + 3 . In the table, a is a constant. What is the value of a ?

Accepted Answer

Choice B is correct. It's given that the table shows three values of $x$ and their corresponding values of $y$ for the equation $y = 4 {(2)}^{x} + 3$ . It's also given that when $x equals 3$ the corresponding value of $y$ is $a$ , and $a$ is a constant. Substituting $3$ for $x$ and $a$ for $y$ in the given equation yields $a = 4 {(2)}^{3} + 3$ , or $a equals 35$ . Therefore, the value of $a$ is $35$ .

Choice A is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.

Choice C is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.

Choice D is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.
