Answer 2

Answer:

exponential function

$f(x) = 12 \cdot 1.023^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

General exponential function $f(x)=a \cdot b^x$

where a is the initial value, b is the rate of increase/decrease (growth/decay factor), and t is time

Given:

• a = 12
• b = 102.3% = 1.023

$f(x) = 12 \cdot 1.023^t$
