Consider the graph of the exponential function, y=3(2)^x. what is the y-intercept and what is the x-intercept. is the graph increasing or decreasing?

the y-intercept is y=1 and it does not intercept the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept and the x-intercept of the function y=3(2)^x can be found by making x=0 and y=0 as follows:

If x= 0 then y=3

If y=0 then, x= undefined (The graph never touches the x-axis. There's an asymptote in x=0).

Summarizing, the y-intercept is y=1 and it does not intercept the x-axis. All this can be verified by looking at the graph:
