A scientist is studying wildlife. She estimates the population of bats in her state to be 326,000. She predicts the population to grow at an average annual rate of 1.4%. Using the scientist's prediction, create an equation that models the population of bats, y, after x years.
A: y= 326000(1.4)^x
B: y= 326000(0.014)^x
C: y=326000(1.014)^x
D: y=326000(0.986)^x

it would be 0.18 because when the other choices are converted they equal those two numbers.   hope this !

any line whose slope not equal to -4 does not satisfy these requirements.

step-by-step explanation:

going from (1,2) to (3, -6), x increases by 2 and y decreases by 8.   thus, the slope of a line thru those two points has the slope m = -8/2, or   m = -4.

thus, no line that has a slope different from m = -4 could be appropriate.

10, heres the way i did it.

5,000 / 5 = 1000 (so we can get 1000, a square number)

0.02% of 1000 is 2.

so now what we have to do is do 2x5, the number we divided 5000 by and we get 10.
