What is the rate of increase for the function f of x is equal to 1 third times open paren cube root of 24 close paren raised to the 2 x power ?

Rewrite the function as f(x) = (1/3)[(∛24)²]^x. The exponential growth factor, or rate of increase, is the base raised to the power of x: (∛24)² = ∛576 = ∛(64 × 9) = 4∛9. So the rate of increase is 4 cube root of 9, choice B.
