A rabbit population can increase at a rapid rate if left unchecked. Assume that 10 rabbits are put in an enclosed wildlife ranch and the rabbit population triples
each year for the next 5 years as shown in the table.

New Population: A group of rabbits of a different kind (with the same initial
value) is placed in a second enclosed wildlife ranch. The new population of
rabbits doubles each year if left unchecked.

Which of the following statements must be TRUE about the model for
the new rabbit population when compared to the model for the original
rabbit population in Part A? Select all that apply.

A.
The coefficient will become 2.

B.
The function rule will be quadratic.

C.
The y-intercept of the graph will be different.

D.
The base of the exponent will change from 3 to 2.

E.
As the number of years increases, the graph of this model will be less steep
than the graph of the original model.

F.
As the number of years increases, the graph of this model will be steeper
than the graph of the original model.
