Answer 1

So to find the total number of butterflies in all the gardens after x years, you need to multiply the amount of gardens by the approximate number of butterflies in each garden. The equation would be

`5({1.05})^(x + 1) * {1.05}^(8x)`
When you multiply numbers that have the same bases with different exponents you just add the exponents together so your answer would be

`5( {1.05})^(9x + 1)`
