Question

a population of rabbits doubles every year write an expression for the increase after five years as repeated multiplication. then write it as an exponential expression

Answer 1

Explanation:

2^5= 32

=2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

= 2^5

= 32

Answer 2

Answer: An increase of a population doubling every year can be modeled using repeated multiplication. The expression for the increase after five years would be:

2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 2^5 = 32

This can also be written as an exponential expression, with 2 as the base and 5 as the exponent:

2^5 = 32

This notation expresses that 2 is multiplied by itself 5 times to get 32, which represents the population size after 5 years with the rate of doubling every year.

It's also worth mentioning that exponential notation is used to represent the quantity of growth (doubling every year) , and using exponents makes it easy to see how much the population has grown over a certain period of time.
