a. a = P(o.56)^t
b. y = mx + b
c. a = x
d. a = P(1.23)^t

The correct formula to find the number of ants still alive after a certain time if the number of ants was changing exponentially is option d: a = P(1.23)^t.

In this formula:
- "a" represents the final number of ants after the given time.
- "P" represents the initial number of ants.
- "t" represents the time passed.

Exponential growth/decay can often be modeled using the general formula: a = P(r)^t, where "r" represents the growth or decay rate.

In this specific case, since the number of ants is changing exponentially, the formula becomes a = P(1.23)^t, where 1.23 represents the growth factor.

So, to find the number of ants still alive after a certain time, you would substitute the initial number of ants (P) and the time passed (t) into the formula and calculate the result.
