Answer: Each year, the number of visitors is 1.5 times the number the year before.

Explanation:

The exponential equation is given by :-


f(x)=Ab^x, where a is initial value and b is multiplicative rate of change with respect to time x.

The given exponential function :
f(x) = 2577(1.5)^x, where x represents the number of visitors to a website x years after it was launched.

We can see that the initial number of visitors = 2577

The multiplicative rate of change = 1.5

Thus it implies each year, the number of visitors is 1.5 times the number the year before.
