is Priya Comparing two functions: f(x) = 10.x² and g(x)= 3·2* to find out which one has greater output values as x gets very large. She notices that f(₁) =Yo and f(2)=yo. However, g(₁) = 6 and g(2)=12. She concluded that as X Continues to grow the values of f will be greater than the values of g. Explain or show why Priya's conclusion is incorrect.
