Answer:

For [tex]P = 1[/tex] ;  [tex]a = 10[/tex], the function [tex]f(x) = Pa^{x}[/tex] would become [tex]f(x) = 10^{x}[/tex] which is an exponential growth function. So, option D is correct.

Please check the attached figure a for visualizing the graph of [tex]f(x) = 10^{x}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

As the function is given by

[tex]f(x) = Pa^{x}[/tex]

For a function to be an exponential growth function

  • [tex]a>1[/tex]

For a function to be an exponential decay function

  • [tex]a<1[/tex]

For a function to have no change

  • [tex]a=1[/tex]

If we carefully observe the choices, it is easy to determine that putting [tex]P = 1[/tex] ;  [tex]a = 10[/tex] in [tex]f(x) = Pa^{x}[/tex] would bring [tex]f(x) = 10^{x}[/tex].

So, [tex]f(x) = 10^{x}[/tex] would be an exponential growth function. The graph of [tex]f(x) = 10^{x}[/tex] is shown in figure a.

So, out of all the available options, only option D is correct i.e. [tex]P = 1[/tex] ;  [tex]a = 10[/tex].
