Part of Exponential Function

Jamie's podcast has 1,400 subscribers. The number of her subscribers is increasing at a rate of 5.9% each week. Which function would represent her followers after w weeks?

• y = 1400(1.059)^w

• y = 105.9(1400)^w

• y = 1400(1.59)^w

• y = 1400(5.9)^w

The amount of bacteria in a sample after x hours can be represented by the function y = 200(3)^x. What does (3)^x mean in this context?

• The bacteria is tripling every hour

• The bacteria is increasing by 3% every hour

• The bacteria is decreasing by 3% every hour
