Answer:
347 is the initial spider population
Step-by-step explanation:
y = ab^x
is the formula for exponential growth and decay
a = the initial value
b is the growth or decay rate
b>1 it is the growth rate (b-1) is the percent
0<b<1 it is the decay rate (1-b) is the percent
y = 347(1.2)^x
347 is the initial spider population
(1.2-1) = .2 = 20 % growth rate
