Stuck in it 3 days ago, please some help. It's a literal equation question.

Let's assume y₂ ≥ y₁.   This is wrong; we shouldn't assume that; the question writers did this problem incorrectly.  But we'll continue to get the answer they want you to choose.

A

The real answer is none-of-the-above.  It's bad when the teachers who write these questions don't really know what they're doing.

The correct answer is y₂ is ambiguous:

ion

the above table 1 will calculate the population size (n) after a certain length of time (t). all you need to do is plug in the initial population number (no), the growth rate (r) and the length of time (t). the constant (e) is already entered into the equation. it stands for the base of the natural logarithms (approximately 2.71828). growth rate (r) and time (t) must be expressed in the same unit of time, such as years, days, hours or minutes. for humans, population growth rate is based on one year. if a population of people grew from 1000 to 1040 in one year, then the percent increase or annual growth rate is 40/1000 x 100 = 4 percent.
