Here's a function: y = 200(1.03^4.
200 is the initial number of frogs
1.03 means that the number of frogs is increasing by 3% per year
and the 4 = # of years, 4 years
Therefore y gives you the total number of frogs after 4 years, if you were to start with 200 frogs and they increase by 3% per year.

thxbro
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no problem. The equation of avg rate of change is f(2)-f(1)/ t2-t1. For 2 means final and 1 means initial.
