Answer: C < B < A
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First, let's evaluate the growth rate of A from [1, 3]
= 300
coordinate is (1, 300)
= 675
coordinate is (3, 675)
Average growth rate (AGR) is:
AGR (A) = 187.5
*************************************************************************************
Next, let's evaluate the growth rate of B from [1, 3]
The coordinates are already provided as (1, 120) and (3, 480)
Average growth rate (AGR) is:
AGR (B) = 180
*************************************************************************************
Lastly, let's evaluate the growth rate of C from [1, 3]
f(x) = 600(1.2)ˣ
f(x) = 600(1.2)¹
= 720
coordinate is (1, 720)
f(x) = 600(1.2)³
= 1036.8
coordinate is (3, 1036.8)
Average growth rate (AGR) is:
AGR (C) = 158.4
