B. 1,4 times

C. 4 more than

D. 0.4 Limes

Answer 1

To determine how the number of visitors changes each year, we can examine the growth factor in the function \( V(x) = 12,479(1.4)^x \).

The term \( 1.4 \) in the function indicates the growth factor. This means that each year, the number of visitors is multiplied by \( 1.4 \).

Therefore, each year, the number of visitors is \( 1.4 \) times the number of visitors from the previous year.

Thus, the answer is:

B. 1.4 times
