Q. How does g(t)=2tg(t) = 2^t change over the interval from t=7t = 7 to t=8t = 8?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) g(t)g(t) increases by 200%200\%\newline(B) g(t)g(t) decreases by a factor of 22\newline(C) g(t)g(t) increases by a factor of 22\newline(D) g(t)g(t) increases by t=7t = 700
  1. Calculate g(7)g(7): Calculate g(7)g(7) to find the value of the function at t=7t = 7.\newlineg(7)=27g(7) = 2^7\newlineg(7)=128g(7) = 128
  2. Calculate g(8)g(8): Calculate g(8)g(8) to find the value of the function at t=8t = 8.\newlineg(8)=28g(8) = 2^8\newlineg(8)=256g(8) = 256
  3. Find factor increase: Find the factor by which g(t)g(t) increases from t=7t = 7 to t=8t = 8.
    Factor = g(8)g(7)\frac{g(8)}{g(7)}
    Factor = 256128\frac{256}{128}
    Factor = 22
  4. Compare factor to choices: Compare the factor of increase to the given choices.\newlineThe factor of increase is 22, which corresponds to the function doubling.
