A virus is spreading exponentially. The initial amount of people infected is 40 and is increasing at a rate of 5% per day. How many people will be infected with the virus after 12 days? We have an exponential growth equation below V(d) where d is the amount of days, g is the growth percentage...

A city has a population of 240,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 8%. What will the population be after 5 years? Set up our population function P(t) = 240,000(1 + t)^n where t is population growth rate percent and n is the time in years Evaluate at t = 0.08 and n = 5...
