Answer
Initial Amount: 14
Growth Factor: 2
Work Step by Step
The initial amount can be found by plugging in 0 for x:
g(x) = (14)(2$^{x}$)
g(0) = (14)(2$^{0}$)
g(0) = (14)(1)
g(0) = 14
The growth factor is 2 because this is the number attached to x. In other words, this is the growth factor because this is the number that allows x to grow as x changes.
