Apologize for a late reply.

$\large\color{slate}{  g(x)=200(1.03)^{2x}     }$

$\large\color{slate}{  g(x)=200\left(\begin{matrix} ~(1.03)^{2} ~ \ \end{matrix}\right)^x     }$

then simplify inside the parenthesis.

is that all

solomonzelman · Answer

yes.

solomonzelman · Answer

it is in terms of an exponent of a single x.

solomonzelman · Answer

so you made a function with an exponent of x, but didn't change it's value:)
