Answer: A =350 (1.05)^t

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:

A = P (1 + r) t

Where:

p = original population

r = growing rate (decimal form; 5/100=0.05)

t= years

A = population after t years

Replacing with the values given:

A = 350 (1+0.05)^t

A =350 (1.05)^t

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
