Question

The function f(x) = 28(1.45)x models the number of cats and dogs adopted from a local animal shelter, where x represents the number of years since 2018. What does 1.45 represent?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If that number is greater than 1, that means that the exponential equation represents growth.  If that number is less than 1 but greater than 0, that means that the exponential equation represents decay.  Since ours is greater than 1, our equation is exponential growth.  It means that the perent of animals adopted grows at a rate of 145% per year, with a starting number of 28 animals in the first year.
