1) j(x) is an exponential function. As the x-values increase by 1, the y-values are each being multiplied by 2.

2) To find g(2), substitute 2 in for x in the function g(x) and evaluate. This gives you a value of g(2) = 6. To find h(4), move along the x-axis until you get to where x is 4, then travel up until you reach the graph of the function, which is where y=5. So h(4) = 5. Since 6 is greater than 5, that means that g(2) > h(4).
