SOLUTION:
Step 1:
Considering the situation painted in the question, it shows that we are working with an exponential function.
Step 2:
Since a period is 12 years, then n years will be n divided by 12 (i.e n / 12)
Step 3:
The estimated population at the beginning was 50
Step 4:
So the equation that represents the class model of the population over time is;
This makes option D the correct option.
