Question

A group of biologists is surveying the mice population in a forest. The equatio n=75 times 3t gives the total number of mice, n, t years after the survey began. What does the number 3 mean in the situationA: the common difference B: The original population of miceC: the common ratioD: the slop

Answer 1

I think the equation should be

$n=75\cdot3^t$

where 3 is the common ratio of the exponential function

so the answer is C.
