Answer:

Point (2, 20) does not lie on the given curve.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us see explanation:

[tex]f(x) = 2. \: {5}^{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: f(x) \: at \: x = 2 \\ f(2) = 2. {5}^{2} = 2.25 = 50 \\ \\ hence \: at \: x = 2 \: \: f(x) = 50 \\ \therefore \:point (2 \: \: 20) \: does \: not \: lie \: on \: the \: \\ \: \: \: \: \: curve.[/tex]

Answer:

(2, 20) is not on the curve.

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 3,  f(x) =  2*5^3 = 250 .  So (3, 250) is on the curve.

When x = 1, f(x) = 2*5^1 = 10 .  So (1, 10) is on the curve.

When x = 2, f(x) =  2*5^2 = 50 .   So (2, 50) is on the curve.

From the last line we see that (2, 20) is NOT  on the curve.
