Question

Compare the two equations below, which model the population growth or decline of two similar cities. Which of the following observations can be made? Select all that apply.

City A: f(x)=365,000(1.046)^x

City B: f(x)=365,000(0.954)^x

a	The population of City A is growing at a rate of 4.6%per year, and the population of City B is decreasing at a rate of 4.6% per year.
b	The cities have different initial populations.
c	After five years, the population of City A is 168,611 more than the population of City B.
d	City B's population is probably declining because large factories are closing down.
