A population of caribou in a forest grows at a rate of 5% every year. If there are currently 248 caribou, which function represents the number of caribou in the forest in t years?
A.
C(t) = 248(1.05)t
B.
C(t) = (248)(1.05)t
C.
C(t) = 248(0.05)t

I think that the answer is C because 5% is 5 out of 100 and 5 out of 100 as a decimal is 0.05 and you are trying to find how much the population will have increased so you have to multiply 248 by 5% or you have to multiply 248 by 0.05

step-by-step explanation:

y = | -2(-2) |     →     y = | 4 |     →     y = 4       ⇒   (-2, 4)

y = | -2(-1) |     →     y = | 2 |     →       y =   2       ⇒   (-1, 2)    

y = | -2(0) |     →     y = | 0 |     →       y = 0         ⇒   (0, 0)

y = | -2(1) |   c →     y = | -2 |     →     y =   2         ⇒   (1, 2)    

y = | -2(2) |     →     y = | - 4 |     →     y =   4         ⇒   (2, 4)
