Which statement below describes the comparison of the linear function f(x) and the exponential function g(x)?

• The value of g(x) is always greater than the value of f(x).

• The value of g(x) is never greater than the value of f(x).

• The value of g(x) will eventually exceed the value of f(x).

• There is not enough information to compare the value of f(x) to the value of g(x).

Function A is linear and starts with $1000 and increases by $100 each day y=100x+1000. Function B is exponential and begins with $20 but doubles each day y = 20(2)^x. On which interval (domain) does Function B exceed Function A?

• (0,1635.34)
