A company launches two new products. The market price, in dollars, of the two products after a different number of years, x, is shown in the following table:

Product Function Year 1

(dollars) Year 2

(dollars) Year 3

(dollars)

Product 1 g (x) = x2 + 11 12 15 20

Product 2 h (x) = 4x 4 16 64

Based on the data in the table, for which product does the price eventually exceed all others, and why?

Product 1, because it has a greater start value

Product 1, because the function is exponential

Product 2, because it has a higher Year 3 value
