Answer:
[tex]56\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is
[tex]y=a(1230.25)^{t/16}[/tex]
We need to convert it into the form
[tex]y=a(1+r)^n[/tex]
where r = Growth rate
n = Time taken
a = Initial quantity
[tex]y=a(1230.25)^{t/16}\\\Rightarrow y=a((1230.25)^{1/16})^t\\\Rightarrow y=1.56^t[/tex]
1.56 can be written as [tex]1+0.56[/tex], so
[tex]y=(1+0.56)^t[/tex]
So, [tex]r=0.56[/tex]
In percent [tex]0.56\times 100\%=56\%[/tex]
The duckweed will increase each day by [tex]56\%[/tex].
