Iris has been studying an invasive population of snails. This particular snail has no local predators, so the population grows wildly. She has observed that the population follows an exponential rate of growth for fifteen years.

A local snail population grows according to the function g(x) = 200(1.03)2x. Demonstrate the steps to convert g(x) into an equivalent function with only x as the exponent. Then, explain to Iris how the key features of this local snail population compares to the key features of the invasive population.

I don't think it's your duty to tell @ilovetits that he/she name isn't appropriate. It will only create problems and arguments and no one wants an argument. So if you don't like he/she username I suggest you report him or ignore.
