Required
Which of the options is true
(a) 1080 insects on day 1
This implies that d = 1
So, we have:

Where
b is the growth factor
By comparison:
<em>Hence, (c) option is true</em>
(d): Growth factor per week is 1.08*7
In (c), we have:
as the daily growth factor
So, the growth factor for n days is:
Substitute 7 for n i.e. 7 days
<em>So, the growth factor for 7 days is: </em><em> not </em>
<em></em>
<em>Hence, (d) option is true</em>
(e): Growth factor per week is 1.08*7
