in the begining i had 1000 bugs after one day there were 1800 bugs how many bugs will i have after 3 days
the formula to use is Ac=Aoekt
----
A(0) = 1000
A(1) = 1800
----------
A(c) = A(0)e^(kt)
1800 = 1000e^(k)
---
e^k = 1.8
----
A(3) = ?
A(3) = 1000*e^(k*3)
A(3) = 1000^3
A(3) = 1000^3
---
A(3) = 1000*5.832
A(3) = 5832
