Answer

$ \begin{aligned} r(v) =\underbrace{-4 t j^w}_b+\underbrace{\left(j^w+k j^w\right)}_m v, \end{aligned} $

Work Step by Step

We know that $v$ is the independent variable, so this is not an exponential function.It must be linear. We want to it in the form $r(v)=b+m v$ : $$ \begin{aligned} r(v) & =v j^w-4 t j^w+k v j^w \\ & =\underbrace{-4 t j^w}_b+\underbrace{\left(j^w+k j^w\right)}_m v, \end{aligned} $$ $$ \text { so } b=-4 t j^w, m=j^w+k j^w $$
