In accordance with the comparison of the given expression to the definition of exponential function, we conclude that the rate of growth is 1/6.
In this question we need to analyze an exponential function of the form:
y = a · (1 + r)ˣ (1)
Where r is the growth rate. Please notice that there is a decay for r < 0. Thus, we find the following finding by comparing the given expression to (1):
y = 0.84 · (1 + 1/6)ˣ
In accordance with the comparison of the given expression to the definition of exponential function, we conclude that the rate of growth is 1/6.
