ORIGINAL PROBLEM- ( A scientist is studying the growth of a particular species of plant. He writes the following equation to show the height of the plant f(n), in cm, after n days: f(n) = 8(1.05)n ) MY QUESTION- If f(n)= 7.005 what is the y intercept of the equation ( f(n) = 8(1.05)n )?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

As presented, the question males no sense. Please provide the entire problem statement. Exponents can be best expressed with "^". For example, 7 cubed might be y^3.

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Rather than complain that I said your question makes no sense, why not make your question make sense? Something is missing. In particular, you have said both: f(n) = 8(1.05)n f(n)= 7.005 It can't be both. Thus, the question cannot be answered as it has been presented. Give it another go.
