A function models the growth of a sample starting with 40 bacteria with the ability to double every two hours. Which graph models the function?

A
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x-axis ranges from negative 0.5 to 0.5 in increments of one-tenth, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 1,000 in increments of 100. A smooth curve goes down and to the right and passes through the point negative 0.3 comma 500 and the labeled point 0 comma 2.
B
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x-axis ranges from negative 10 to 5 in increments of 1, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 1,200 in increments of 100. A smooth curve goes down and to the right and passes through the point negative 9 comma 900 and the labeled point 9 comma 40.
C
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x-axis ranges from negative 5 to 10 in increments of 1, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 1,200 in increments of 100. A smooth curve goes up and to the right and passes through the labeled point 0 comma 40 and the point 9 comma 900.
D
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x-axis ranges from negative 0.5 to 0.5 in increments of one-tenth, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 1,000 in increments of 100. A smooth curve goes up and to the right and passes through the labeled point 0 comma 2 and the point 0.3 comma 500.
