A biology class at Central High School predicted that a local population of animals will double in size every 12 years. The population at the beginning of 2014 was estimated to be 50 animals. If P represents the population n years after 2014, then which of the following equations represents the class's model of the population over time?
p = 12 + 50m
p = 50(2)^ 12n
p = 50 + 12n
p = 50(2)^(n/12)

The equation represents the class's model of the population over time will be P = 50(2)^(n/12). Then the correct option is D.

Consider the function:

y = a (r)ⁿ

Where n is the number of times this growth occurs, a = initial amount, and r = increasing amount of growth.
