Seth tracks the average number of a plant species found in a forest area. He uses volunteers to help search for the species. The
number n of plants found increases by r percent for each volunteer added to the search. Seth found l plants before adding any volunteers. Part A
Write an exponential growth function that relates the number n of plants found to the number x of volunteers Seth has.
Part B
An appropriate domain of the function is x ≥ 0, where the x-values are:
Choose from one of the following-
Rational Numbers
Whole Numbers

No. Having the greater initial value does not mean that function will always have the greater y-value, because that also depends on the rate of change. If the function with the larger initial value has a smaller rate of change, it may result in the output becoming smaller at some point.
