I am pretty sure it is B.
I honestly do not know this seems to me to be a trick question
Answer:
Both of your answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the equations by distributing the number outside of the parentheses. After doing the expansion, your equations are both correct.
An exponential function is :
f ( x ) = a * b^x,
where x is the number of the years.
a = 240 ( number of the birds at start )
16 % = 0.16
b = 1 + 0.16 = 1.16
f ( x ) = 240 * 1.16^x
Answer:
a = 240, b = 1.16
