Write an equation to represent the below situation “A library has 8000 books, and is adding 500 more books each year.”

• y=8000-500x

• y=8000*50^x

• y=500x+8000

• y=8000(1.5)^x

A science experiment involves periodically measuring the number of mold cells present on a piece of bread. At the start of the experiment, there are 50 mold cells. Each time a periodic observation is made, the number of mold cells triples. For example, at observation #1, there are 150 mold cells.

Suppose a culture of bacteria begins with 5000 cells and dies by 30% each year. Write an equation that represents this situation.

• y=5000(0.7)^x

• y=30(5000)^x

• y=5000(1.3)^x

• y=5000x^x
