A species of bacteria grows exponentially and doubles in population size every hour. Which of the following is the formula you would use to represent this growth if the original population was 100 bacteria?

ƒ(x) = 1002
ƒ(x) = 100 2
ƒ(x) = 2100
ƒ(x) = 2 100
100 = ƒ(x)2
100 = ƒ(x) 2
100 = ƒ(x)100
The correct formula to represent the growth of the bacteria population would be:
ƒ(x) = 100 * 2^x
Where x represents the number of hours elapsed.
