C. The outlier because it doesn’t fit with the rest
1.8 km >> 1,800 m
1,800 - 740 = 1,060 m
1,060 m >> 1.06 km
The shorter route is 1.06 km.
Exponential growth has the form:
F=Ir^t, F=final amount, I=initial amount, r=rate, t=time.
First let's solve for the rate, r, using the points provided...
37325/34560=(Ir^2)/(Ir^1)
r≈1.08
Now find the initial amount...
34560=I(1.08)^1
I=32000 so now we have the entire equation, using x and y...
y=32000(1.08)^x
Answer:
24 because you get more pencils to use in case one breaks.
