The function f(x) = 14(3)^x represents the growth of a dragonfly population every year in a remote swamp. Rose wants to manipulate the formula to an equivalent form that calculates seven times a year, not just once a year. Which function is correct for Rose's purpose, and what is the new growth rate?

Question

f(x) = 2(3)^x; growth rate 200%

f(x) = 2(1.17)^7x; growth rate 117%

f(x) = 2(3)^x, growth rate 2%

f(x) = 2(1.17)^x; growth rate 2%
