A new, trendy department store is experiencing exponential growth across America. The chain began in 2004 when it opened 16 stor
es in Texas. Since then, it has grown by 35% in new store openings each year. Create an exponential function below to show the number of stores each year, x, since 2004.
This equation is of the form y=a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth expressed as a decimal number, y is the total, and x is the amount of time. For our problem, a is 16; b is 0.35 (35%=35/100=0.35). This gives us the equation above.
Refer to the photo for my work and answer. Basically, you are finding the probability of selecting anything but an AAS student. So you add up the other students and divide by 22
