Some studies find that the yearly growth rate of a certain wildflower can be modeled by the equation Y=1000(1.08)^x. Use the properties of exponents to show an equivalent equation that represents the monthly growth of the wildflowers. Find the values of a, b, c, and d. Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.
y=1,000(1.08)x

=1,000((1.08)1/a)^bx
a=

do i do it on a graph?

step-by-step explanation:

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
