The pond can hold 400 water lilies. By what day will the pond be full? Write and solve an equation.The pond will be full by the end of day .

Answer:

Which solution method did you use?

Logarithms

Graphing y = 3.915(1.106)x and tracing

Graphing y = 3.915(1.106)x and y = 400, then finding the x-value of the intersection

By the 46th day, there are 400 water lilies in the pond. The estimate you made

close to 46 (or exactly right) because it was estimated well.

too low because the quick exponential growth was not accounted for.

too high because the exponential growth was overestimated.
