A certain population of bacteria has an average growth rate of 2%. The formula for the growth of
the bacteria’s population is
is the original population and t is the time in hours. If you begin with 200 bacteria, about how many bacteria will there be after 200 hours?
The function graphed on this coordinate grid shows f(x), the height of a dropped ball, in feet, after its xth bounce.

On which bounce was the height of the ball 10 feet?
A population of squirrels doubles every year. Initially, there were 5 squirrels. A biologist studying the squirrels created a function to model their population growth:
