Answer:
F(t) = 9(1 + 0.13)^t
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Height of beanstalk = initial height = 9 inches
Percentage increase in height per day = 13%
This plant exhibits an exponential increase in growth per day, hence, the function will be modeled using an exponential function.
Using an exponential function :
F(t) = initial height(1 + percentage increase)^t
Where, t = number of days since tree was planted.
The function is :
F(t) = 9(1 + 0.13)^t
