Because of the rainy season, the depth in a pond increases 3% each week. Before the rainy season started, the pond was 10 feet deep. What is the equation that best represents the depth of the pond each week? Hint: Use the formula y = P(1 + r)x. y = 10(0.03)x y = 10(0.3)x y = 10(1.3)x y = 10(1.03)x

y = 10(1.03)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

In the formula y = p(1 + r)^x, p is the starting amount and r is the growth rate.

In this problem, the starting amount is 10. So, p = 10.

The growth rate is 3% each week, which is the same as 0.03 as a percentage. So, r = 0.03.

Plug these into the equation:

y = 10(1.03)^x will be the equation for this situation
