the projected value of an investment is modeled by the exponential function v(t) = 30,000(1.125) where v(t) is the total value

after t years. what does 1.125 represent in the function?

the growth factor of the investment

the initial value of the investment

the projected value of the investment

d)

the value of the investment after t years:

The correct option is A) The growth factor of the investment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided exponential function.

Where V(t) is the total value  after t years.

Here the function is in the form of Exponential Growth:

Where b value is the growth factor.

By comparing we get that the constant '1.125' represents the growth factor by which our value is increasing each year.

Constant '30,000' represents the initial value i.e. the investment made.

Hence, the correct option is A) The growth factor of the investment.

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
