A popular social media platform has begun offering stock shares to the public. In the past 2 years, the price of the stock has generally increased. An investment specialist gathers data on the stock price during the past 2 years and creates an exponential model for estimating the stock price based on the number of weeks after the first public offering. Based on the scatterplot and computer output, a reasonable estimate for the stock price for week 95 is: O $2.27 because y 0.0022(95) + 2.0583 = 2.2673. O $9.65 because log y =0.0022(95) +2.0583 2.2673 and e2.2673 = 9.6533. log(Stock Price) vs. Weeks O $185.05 because kg y =0.0022(95)+2.0583=2.2673 and 102 2673 = 185.05. 2.28 2.26 224 O $220.44 because log y 0.0030(95)+2.0583 2.3433 and 2.22 22 2 12 2 16 102.3433 = 220.44 ock Price)

When I used an exponential function to model Russia’s declining population, the growth rate k was negativeDetermine whether the statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning.

Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to a continuous exponential growth model. A sample of  2100  bacteria selected from this population reached the size of  2335  bacteria in three hours. Find the hourly growth rate parameter. Note: This is a continuous exponential growth model.   Write your answer as a percentage. Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your percentage to the nearest hundredth.
