Answer: A = 240(1.16)^x
a= 240
b= 1.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:
A = P (1 + r) t
Where:
p = original population
r = growing rate (decimal form)
t= years
A = population after t years
Replacing with the values given:
A =240(1+ 16/100)^x
A = 240(1.16)^x
If it is in the form: f(x) = ab'
a= 240
b= 1.16
