Algebra 2 Exponential Functions

Jason puts $545 into a savings account that earns 3% annually.  The amount in his account can be modeled by A(t) = 545(1.03)^t  where t is the time in years.  Which expression best approximates the amount of money in his account using a weekly growth rate?

Stephanie found that the number of white-winged cross bills in an area can be represented by the formula C= 550(1.08)^t, where t represents the number of years since 2010.  Which equation correctly represents the number of white-winged cross bills in terms of the monthly rate of population growth?

• C= 550(1.00643)^t

• C= 550(1.00643)^12t

• C = 550(1.00643)^t/12

• C = 550(1.00643)^t+12
