The surface area of an oil spill gets 125% larger every day, represented by the function s (x) = (1.25) x _ 1. On the first day, it covered an area of 49 square meters. Which function would be used to find the area of the oil spill on the 33rd day?

s (x) = (1.25) x _ 49

s (x) = (1.25) 49 _ 1

s (x) = 49 (1.25) x _ 1

s (x) = 1.25 (49) x _ 1
