Question 7(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

(03.02 MC)

Initially, there were only 86 weeds in the garden. The weeds grew at a rate of 8% each week. The following function represents the weekly weed growth: f(x) = 86(1.08)x. Rewrite the function to show how quickly the weeds grow each day.

f(x) = 86(1.08)7x; grows approximately at a rate of 5.6% daily
f(x) = 86(1.087)x; grows approximately at a rate of 0.56% daily
f(x) = 86(1.01)x; grows approximately at a rate of 0.1% daily
f(x) = 86(1.01)7x; grows approximately at a rate of 1% daily

Q's asked: Initially, there were only 86 weeds in the garden. The weeds grew at a rate of 8% each week. The following function represents the weekly weed growth: f(x) = 86(1.08)x. Rewrite the function to show how quickly the weeds grow each day.

The person up top said (A) which is incorrect//// f(x) = 86(1.08)7x; grows approximately at a rate of 5.6% daily

He forgot to divide the rate by 7

Umm... i think the correct answer is f(x) = 86(1.01)7x; grows approximately at a rate of 1% daily

Hope this helps
