What type of relation is this and why?

This is an exponential relation because the constant ratios are the same

An ant colony triples in numbers every month. Currently, there are 12 000 ants in the nest. The equation for this model is P(n)=12000 (3)n. Use the equation to predict the size of the ant colony in 3 months.

P(3)=12000 (3)

P(3) =324000

Therefore the ant colony will have 324000 ants in three months

The value of Mrs. Hookers Kia Rio after it was purchased depreciated according to the formula P(n)=25000(0.85)n where P(n) is the cars value in the nth year after it was purchased. After how many years will the Kia be half of the original purchase price? *hint use log

12 500=25000(0.85)n

12500/25000= 25000(0.85)n/25000

0.5=0.85n

log(0.5)/log(0.85)
