Question

Can someone help me with 2 problems?
2. Suppose a population of 160 crickets doubles in size every month. The function f(x) = 160 x 2^x gives the population after x months. How many crickets will there be after 2 years?

Answer 1

x = 24

Answer 2

Substitute x for 24

Answer 3

So if I substitute 24 for x then f(24) = 160 x 2^24?

Answer 4

Is 2,684,354,560 an option?

Answer 5

Yes it is

Answer 6

I have another problem if anyone wants to help:
3. Suppose an investment of $2,300 doubles in value every decade. The function f(x) = 2,300 x 2^x gives the value of the investment after x decades. How much is the investment worth after 2 decades?
