The function below describes the population of caribou in a tundra, where f(t) represents the number of caribou, in hundreds, and t represents the time, in years.

f(t)=1.8(1.2)^t

initially, the tundra has caribou, and every , the number of caribou increases by a factor of .

  Initially, the tundra has 180 caribou, and every year , the number of caribou increases by a factor of 1.2 .

Step-by-step explanation:

"Initially" generally means "when t=0." Put 0 where t is in the function and evaluate it:

  f(0) = 1.8(1.2)^0 = 1.8(1) = 1.8 . . . . . hundreds

1.8 hundreds is 1.8×100 = 180.

t is in years, so the simplest choice for the second blank in the statement is "year".

__

The exponent of 1.2 is t, which means that 1.2 is a factor of the expression the number of times specified by t.

  for t=0, f(0) = 1.8

  for t=1, f(1) = 1.8(1.2)

  for t=2, f(2) = 1.8(1.2)(1.2)

  for t=3, f(3) = 1.8(1.2)(1.2)(1.2)

Perhaps you can see that every year, the number increases by a factor of 1.2.

You could put "3 years" in the second blank, then the third blank would be 1.2³ = 1.728. While correct, it is probably not what is expected by your answer checker.

the answer would be the last one (constat) she stays at the same rat every two mintues it goes up by 0.4
