Answer

$y(x)=4^x$

Work Step by Step

Observe that the graph is of the form $y=b^x$. To find the equation of the graph, we need to find the value of $b$. To find this value, we substitute values from the point $(1,4)$. We get $b=4$. Thus the equation is $y(x)=4^x$. $y=b^x\rightarrow4=b^1\rightarrow{b}=4$ $y(x)=4^x$
