Which equation below would result in the highest earnings, y, when the number of hours worked, x, is 20?


y = 2x^2

y = 2^x

y = 2x + 2

y = |2x|

Verified Answer :

Answer:

(B)    

Step-by-step explanation:

(A)The given equation is:

\(y=2x^2\)

Substituting the value of x=20, we get

\(y=2(20)^2\)

\(y=2(400)\)

\(y=800\)

(B) The given equation is:

\(y=2^x\)

Substituting the value of x=20, we get

\(y=2^{20}\)

\(y=1048576\)

(C) The given equation is:

\(y=2x+2\)

Substituting the value of x=20, we get

\(y=2(20)+2\)

\(y=42\)

(D) The given equation is:

\(y=|2x|\)

Substituting the value of x=20, we get

\(y=|2(20)|\)

\(y=40\)

Thus, the equation \(y=2^x\) results in the highest earning y.
