Q. f(t)=100(1.1)3tWhich of the following is an equivalent form of the function f in which the exponent is t?Choose 1 answer:(A) f(t)=100(1.331)t(B) f(t)=100(3.3)t(C) f(t)=100(4.1)t(D) f(t)=300(1.1)t
Given function transformation: We are given the function f(t)=100(1.1)3t and we need to express it in a form where the exponent is just t. To do this, we need to find a base that raised to the power of t will give us the same result as (1.1)3t.
Find equivalent base: To find the equivalent base for the exponent t, we can raise 1.1 to the power of 3 and then use that result as the new base. This is because (1.1)3t is the same as (1.13)t.
Calculate new base: Now we calculate 1.13 to find the new base.1.13=1.1×1.1×1.11.13=1.331
Rewrite function with new base: Now we can rewrite the function f(t) using the new base we found: f(t)=100(1.331)t This is the equivalent form of the function with the exponent as t.
Match with answer choices: Looking at the answer choices, we see that option (A) matches our calculation:(A) f(t)=100(1.331)t
