An arborist creates a table of different tree height patterns over a 4 year period.

Question

Time	Apple	Pine	Fig
0	2	4	8
1	2.8	5.6	11.2
2	4.5	7.8	14.4
3	8.6	10.9	17.6

Which of the trees has an exponential growth pattern?

Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.

A. For exponential models, the absolute change from one time to the next is always a constant.

B. For exponential models, the ratio of consecutive entries in the table is a constant.

C. For exponential models, the relative change from one time to the next is always a constant.

D. For exponential models, the difference between consecutive entries in the table is a constant.

E. None of the above statements is true.

Answer 1

The pine tree has an exponential growth pattern.

the tree increase by a constant value of 1.4.

C) For exponential models, the relative change from one time to the next is always a constant.
