Answer:
The correct option is (A).
Step-by-step explanation:
The function representing the growth of number, in billions, of the DNA sequences in a database x years since 2010 is:
The general growth function can be represented as:
Here,
<em>y</em> = final value
<em>a</em> = initial value
<em>r</em> = growth rate
<em>t</em> = time
Com-paring the two functions we get:
This implies that the annual increase rate in number, in billions, of the DNA sequences is 32%.
Thus, the correct option is (A).
