ANSWER TRUTHFULLY WILL NAME YOU BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The ordered pairs (1,5) (2,25) (3,125) (4,625) and (5,3125) represent the function y=5^x. How does this rule represent the function?

A) y=x5
B) y=5x
C) y=5^5=x
D) y=x+5

Respuesta :

For each answer, we can plug in the given points:

A) is technically the same as B), but B) expresses correct function notation.

B) 5 = 5(1) ⇒ 5 = 5
     25 = 5(2) ⇒ 25 ≠ 10
     B) is incorrect.

C) I'm not sure what you mean y=5^5=x, but I'm going to use [tex]y=5^{x} [/tex] because it's close to what you wrote:
[tex]5=5^{1} =\ \textgreater \ 5=5 \\ 25=5^{2} =\ \textgreater \ 25=25 \\ 125=5^{3} =\ \textgreater \ 125 = 125 \\ 625=5^{4}=\ \textgreater \ 625=625 \\ 3125=5^{5}=\ \textgreater \ 3125=3125[/tex]
The function [tex]y=5^{x} [/tex] works for the points given.

D) 5 = 1 + 5 ⇒ 5 ≠ 6
     D) is not correct.

Please check your functions; I'm not sure that C) is a function.  In any case, the answer is C) because all the other answers are wrong.
