Exponential Growth Practice

The Community Service Club hosts a charity walk each year. The following table shows the number of participants each year over the last few years. Write a rule that could model the projected attendance each year.

• y = 100(1000)^x

• y = 1000(100)^x

• y = 1000(1.1)^x

• y = 1000(0.1)^x
