<PRE><B>Question 452699</B>
Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to an exponential growth model, with a growth rate of 13% per hour. Suppose also that a sample culture of 2800 bacteria is obtained from this population. Find the size of the sample after three hours. Round your answer to the nearest integer. 

---------------------
A(t) = 2800*(1.13)^t
----
A(3) = 2800*(1.13)^3
---
A(3) = 4040
