A scientist studying insects starts with a population of 10. The population triples every hour. How many insects will there be after 20 minutes?

OpenStudy (jtvatsim):

The formula for growth is: \[P = P_0 r^t\] the P stands for what the population will be, the P0 is your starting population, r is the rate of growth, and t is the time. Be careful to use the correct units for time.
