in a laboratory, under favorable conditions, a bacteria grows at an exponential rate. the number of cells C in the population is modeled by the function C(t)=ab^t, where a and b are constants and t is measured in hours.T                C(t)---            -------0                 8-----           --------1                 24Which function can be used to find the number of cells of bacteria in the population at time t?A. C(t)=8(1)^tB. C(t)=24(1)^tC. C(t)=8(3)^tD. C(t)=24(3)^t
