Step-by-step explanation:
Part A, Option 1 is a exponential function while option is a linear equation.
Part B, Let y=b*a^(x) be the function for option 1. At x=1, y=1100 and at x=2, y=1210. 1100=b*a and 1210=b*a^2. Dividing them both we get, b=1.1 and a=1000. y=1000*(1.1)^(x). For option 2, it's a linear equation with a function y(x)=1000+100x.
The 20 year difference would be immense. With option 1, Belinda will get $6727.5 whereas with option 2, they will end up with $3000
