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?

N(t)=N0 2^(t/4)

================================
N%28t%29=N%5Bo%5D2%5E%28t%2F4%29
================================

(a)
Given N%5Bo%5D=3, find N%2824%29.
