The expression log₂(10) tells us when the population reaches 10,000 and the equation 7 = log₂(128) tells us that the population reaches 128,000 in 7 days.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

Where a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplication factor.

Let p represent the bacteria population in thousand after d days.

Since each day, the bacteria population grows by a factor of 2, hence:

[tex]p=2^d[/tex]

Hence, d = log₂p represents a logarithmic function

The expression log₂(10) tells us when the population reaches 10,000 and the equation 7 = log₂(128) tells us that the population reaches 128,000 in 7 days.
