The exponent comes out exactly one

In a population of microbial cells, the initial population is 50, and the growth rate is 0.1 per hour. If the population grows exponentially, what will the approximate size of the population be after 10 hours?

  1. A.51
  2. B.82
  3. C.136✓ Correct
  4. D.156

50 are analysed free — try those first.
