Write an equation that models the following situation:

Samantha's hair was known to grow very rapidly. It began at a length of 6 in and grew at a rate of 14% a week.

(HINT: Write out the equation on a separate piece of paper and hen simplify inside the parenthesis)

• y=6(0.14)^x

• y=6(1+14)^x

• y=6(1.14)^x

• y=6(0.86)^x
