Jericho is a botanist and is researching about a particular species of plant. He found that the number of plants in his testing environment increases by 60% each year. The following expression represents the number of plants in his testing environment after t years.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let initial number of plants =100

Increase I year                        60

Number after 1 year               160

Increase IIyear 60%                96

Number after II year               256

Increase in III year 60%           153.6

and so on

In general if t is number of years and N number of plants after n years

the expression would be

[tex]N(t)=N_{0} (1.06)^t[/tex]

In other words, the expressions wouldbe the same as amount after t years of compound interest.
