1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function with base b is defined by ƒ (x) = a (b) ˣ.

The base b is the growth factor - the factor by which each successive term is multiplied.

If b > 1, we have exponential growth.

The function is

ƒ (x) = 350 (1 + 0.10) ˣ = 350 (1.10) ˣ

The growth factor is 1.10.
