Question

You have an ant farm with 35 ants. The population of ants in your farm will double every 3 months. The table shows the population growth of the ants over nine months. Decide whether the table represents a linear function or a nonlinear function. After one​ year, how many ants will there be in the ant​ farm?

Answer 1

Answer:

560 ants and non linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

12 months divided by 3 months is 4. 35 times 2 is 70. Again is 140. Again is 280. Again a 4th time is 560 ants. It is not linear because it does not increase the same amount each time.
