What is the degree of the power function represented in the table?
A) 1
B) 2
C) 3
D) 4

Answer:
Option D) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The monomial is presented with a function in the form:
[tex]y = n^{x}[/tex]
where n = any number
x = power where n is raised
In the graph, there is the positive and negative side.
The negative side is simply given as: [tex]y = -n^{x}[/tex]
and the positive side is given as [tex]y = n^{x}[/tex]
In the table, each function is give like this: 16 = [tex]2^{x}[/tex]
solving for x gives x = 4
Therefore, the degree of the function = 4
