Answer:
Growth
3.8%
Explanation:
Look at the number raised to a power.
In this case it is 1.038
If the number raised to a power is greater than 1, it is growth.
If that number is less than 1 it is decay.
Here, it is growth since 1.038 > 1.
Also, 1.038 = 1 + 0.038 = 1 + 3.8%
The rate of growth is 3.8%.
