Question

PLEASE HELP ME

The population f(x), in millions, of State A of a country after x years is represented by the function shown below:

f(x) = 4(1.08)^x

The graph shows the population g(x), in millions, of State B of the country after x years:



Which conclusion is correct about the population of State A and State B?
a The original population of State A was double of the original population of State B.
b The original population of State B was double of the original population of State A.
c The original population of State A was four times of the original population of State B.
d The original population of State A was equal to the original population of State B.

Answer 1

a The original population of State A was double of the original population of State B.

Explanation:

Answer 2

A.

When we substitute 0 for x, we get
f(x) = 4, so the population of country A was 4 million
From the graph, g(x) = 2 at x = 0, so the initial population of country B was 2 million, half that of country A.
