Consider this function for cell duplication where the cells duplicate every minute.

f(x) = 75(2)x
Determine what each parameter in the function represents.
A) The 75 is the initial number of cells, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute.
B) The 75 is the initial number of cells, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells increases by 2 every minute.
C) The 75 is the number of cells at 1 minute, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute.
D) The 75 is the number of cells at 1 minute, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells increases by 2 every minute.

A) The 75 is the initial number of cells, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for cell duplication where the cells duplicate every minute, is given by

The initial number of cells occurs when x=0:

Note that every non-zero number to the exponent of zero is 1.

Therefore the initial number of cells  is 75

The two is the multiplicative rate of change, therefore the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute.

since proposition states that a number is greater than 25, if is true then the number must actually be greater than 25.

this implies that all possible options, except 24, can be accepted
