Writing exponential growth or decay functions

Write the exponential function for :

 A population of beetles that starts at 50 increases by 65% each year.

• $f\left(x\right)\ =\ 50\ \left(.65\right)^x$

• $f\left(x\right)=\ 50\left(1.65\right)^x$

• $f\left(x\right)\ =\ 65\left(.50\right)^x$

• $f\left(x\right)=\ 50\left(.35\right)^x$

To write the exponential function for :

 A population of beetles that starts at 50 increases by 65% each year.

What is the 1st step?

• Add  $100+\ 65\%$  

• Subtract  $100-65\%$  

• change the  $65\ \%$  to a decimal by moving it two units to the left
  

• change the  $65\ \%$  to a decimal by moving it two units to the righy
