I need this equation thoroughly explained and answered please im stuck

The following graph shows three different exponential growth or decay functions. Each graph has a y-intercept of 8. One function shows the exponential growth of a bacteria that has a growth rate of 0.06,
in thousands. Another function shows a 2% increase in the population of a species, in thousands. The third function shows a chemical compound, in thousands of grams, with a half-life of about 11.55
years. What graph represents each situation? What is the population or mass of the item in 10 years. What is the equation for each function?
