Question

Meg initially has 3 hours of pop music and 2 hours of classical music in her collection. Every month onwards, the hours of pop music in her collection is 5% more than what she had the previous month. Her classical music does not change. Which function shows the total hours of music she will have in her collection after x months? (5 points) f(x) = 2(0.05)x + 3 f(x) = 3(0.05)x + 2 f(x) = 2(1.05)x + 3 f(x) = 3(1.05)x + 2

Answer 1

Her Pop music which started at 3 hours increases by 5% which is written as 0.05 as a decimal.

You need to multiply the number of hours of pop music by 5% every month to find the new total and then add that to the 2 hours of classical.

The equation would be: f(x) = 3(1.05)x + 2
