I'm in Calc II for the summer, but for some reason my teacher gave us a take-home test on exponential growth. She said we could work together and such, but the class didn't have time, so I was wondering if somebody could check it for me. It seems pretty straight to me, but it's a large chunk of my grade and my friends/parents wouldn't be of much help, so I would greatly appreciate it if any of you could give it a looking over. My answer sheet is neater, but this has all the work on it. Thanks.

It couldn't look better really.
 
man why didn't he teach you the DE that this comes from, have you been introduced to differential equations yet?
 
Thanks Dick.

Ice, we have done differentital equations. She said we could do this any way we wanted, and this way I really knew how to do and I'm still a little unfamiliar with DEs.

do you know how to do separation of variables?
