The number of bees in a colony was 25 in 1996 and has increased by 24% each year. Which exponential growth model shows the number of bees in the colony in terms of t, the number of years since 1996?options:y=25(24)t y=25(1.24)t y=25(0.24)t y=25+24t

Given:

The initial number of bees in the colony = 25

There is an increase = rate = 24% = 0.24

let the t = number of years since 1999

To find:

the exponential growth model in terms of t

To determine the growth model, we will use the formula for exponential growth:

substitute the values into the formula:

a 10 percent increase
