Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Taking the antiderivative of the given derivative yields:
$f(x) = 11e^{a x+b}+C$
Using the given point, we have:
$11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11 = 11e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b}+C$
Simplifying and solving for C:
$C = 11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11 - 11e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b}$
Substituting back into the original function, we get:
$f(x) = 11e^{a x+b}+11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11 - 11e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b}$
Simplifying:
$f(x) = 11(e^{a x+b}+a8970_6a69_2799_861b_6f9cfc0bd510_TB1301_11 - e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b})$
Plugging in the answer choices for $a8970_6a69_2799_861b_6f9cfc0bd510_TB1301_11$:
A) $11ea8970_6a69_4eaa_861b_c38590661e02_TB1301_11$
$f(x) = 11(e^{a x+b}+11ea8970_6a69_4eaa_861b_c38590661e02_TB1301_11 - e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b})$
This choice results in a different value for $C$ than what we found earlier, so it is not correct.
B) $11ea8970_6a69_4eab_861b_11d524fd6cfb_TB1301TB1301_11$
$f(x) = 11(e^{a x+b}+11ea8970_6a69_4eab_861b_11d524fd6cfb_TB1301TB1301_11 - e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b})$
This choice results in a different value for $C$ than what we found earlier, so it is not correct.
C) $11ea8970_6a69_4eac_861b_e337622ff4bb_TB1301_11$
$f(x) = 11(e^{a x+b}+11ea8970_6a69_4eac_861b_e337622ff4bb_TB1301_11 - e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b})$
This choice matches our earlier value for $C$, so it is correct.
D) $11ea8970_6a69_4ead_861b_71501aa897c0_TB1301_11$
$f(x) = 11(e^{a x+b}+11ea8970_6a69_4ead_861b_71501aa897c0_TB1301_11 - e^{a(11ea8970_6a69_2799_861b_71ec0c16c552_TB1301_11)+b})$
This choice results in a different value for $C$ than what we found earlier, so it is not correct.
E) $11ea8970_6a69_75be_861b_d79f53b00f23_TB1301_11$
This value has one more digit than the others, so it is likely a typo. Additionally, even if we remove the last digit and use the value, it results in a different value for $C$ than what we found earlier, so it is not correct.
