We have the following exponential equation:
y = A (b) ^ n
Defined the following variables:
A: is the initial number of customers who applied
b: is the rate of increase in the number of people who applied every month
n: is the number of months since the bank opened
Substituting values we have:
y = 27 (1.2) ^ 4
y = 27 * 2.07
Answer:
There are 2.07 more people in month 4 than in month 1
option 3
