Algebra 1: Chapter 7 Test

What is it about the equation y = 2(9/7)^x that indicates that it is a model for exponential growth?

• The equation is growth because 2 is positive.

• The equation is growth because the factor is positive.

• The equation is growth because the factor is greater than one.

• The equation is growth because the exponent is always positive.
