Question 1156819: The doubling time for a certain type of cell is 4 h. The number of cells after t hours is described by N(t)=N0 2^(t/4) where N0 is the initial population. Assume N0= 3.
a) Determine the number of cells after 24 hours.
b) How would the graph and the equation change if the doubling time were 2 h?
c) What are the domain and range of this function in the context of this problem?
