40.5


If Jess wants to increase the hours exponentially, which option(s) should she choose?
Only option 1, because it shows equal increases in equal intervals of time.

Only option 2, because it shows equal increases in equal intervals of time.

Either option 1 or option 2, because they show increases in time by the same percentages.

Either option 2 or option 3, because they show increases in time by the same percentages.
