The function f(x) = 582(7)x represents the growth of a mosquito population every year in a remote swamp. Troy wants to manipulate the formula to an equivalent form that calculates every 2 months, not every year. Which function is correct for Troy's purposes?

f(x) = 582(7)^x
OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):
plug in for x then multiply it by 7 then 582
OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):
Whatever you get for 7*^x multiply it by 582

Could you show your process?

im so confused :/
these are my options
f(x) = 582(7 1/6)12x
f(x) = 52(7)^x
f(x) = 582(7^12)^x/12
f(x) = 5852(7)^x

is it the first one
OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):
Says 2 years, but calculate them in 2 months, so it would be ^12
1/6 = 2 months
OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):
I'd say the first one.
