A young channel catfish weighs about 0.1 pound. During the next 8 weeks, its weight increases by about 23% each week. Write an exponential growth function that represents the weight of the catfish after t weeks during the 8-week period.*Please Help*
Question
Answer:
For this case we have an equation of the form:[tex] y = A * (b) ^ t [/tex]
Where,
A: initial weight of the channel.
b: growth rate
t: time in weeks.
Substituting values we have:
[tex] y = 0.1 * (1.23) ^ t [/tex]
Where, the domain is:
[0, 8]
Answer:
an exponential growth function that represents the weight of the catfish after t weeks during the 8-week period is:
[tex] y = 0.1 * (1.23) ^ t [/tex]
Domain:
[0, 8]
