The function f ( x ) = 3 x is often referred to as a tripling function because f ( x ) triples whenever x changes by 1 . But this is not the only example of a tripling function. Give two more distinct examples of tripling functions (functions whose values triple whenever the independent variable changes by 1 ).

Step 1
The function g(x) = 3^x is a tripling function. This is because for any x, g(x+1) = 3^(x+1) = 3^x * 3 = 3g(x), which means the function value triples when x increases by 1. Show more…
