Question

Maggie and her friends are each able to recruit a certain number of people each year to sample a product. The number of people per year is represented by the function f(t) = 3(2)t. What does the t represent? How many people were recruited in year 6?

t represents the year number; 36 people were recruited in year 6

t represents the year number; 192 people were recruited in year 6

t represents the number of people; 192 people were recruited in year 6

is it b

Answer 1

F(t) = 6 t ?
t is time or year

F(6) = 6 * 6 = 36

Could you have a typo? Do you mean something else by 3(2)
maybe 3^2 which is 9 but that would give 54 which is not a choice.

Answer 2

I think Oscar meant
f(t) = 3(2)^t
so f(6) = 3(2^6) = 192

at least that way one of the answers will fit.
