f(x) = 4(3)x and f(5) = 972.

972 represents the population of the rabbits after five years.

5 in f(5) represents the year.
4 in f(x) = 4(3)x represents the starting population of the rabbits
3 in f(x) = 4(3)x represents the rate the population increases
x in f(x) = 4(3)x represents the number of years that have passed.

Answer: The population of the rabbits after five years

if we plug 5 into our f(x)=4(3)x

then we would get 972
