Question

There are currently 18 frogs in a pond. The frog poulation grows exponentially, tripling every 10 days. How long will it take for there to be 260 frogs in the pond

Answer 1

Explanation:

Set

290 = 27 (3)t/8

and solve for t.

290/27 = 3t/8

log(290/27) = (t/8) log3

t = 8 log(290/27) / log3 ≅ 17.288 days

Test the answer.

For time to 1900, set

1900 = 27 (3)t/8

Answer 2

Answer:

appornately it colud be23 24 days to be 260
