(1/A)  dA/dt=  C where A is the population of ants and C is a constant
ln(A) = C*t + C1 where C1 is another constant that comes out of integration and t is time in days.
Plugging in: at t=0, A= 100 so C1 = ln(100) = 4.605
at t=3, A=230 so ln(230) = 3*C +4.605 so C = 0.278
Final equation:
ln(A) = 0.278t + 4.605
or:
A = exp(0.278t + 4.605)
After 14 days, A = exp(0.278*14 + 4.605) = 4875.2

There exist an abbreviation that ALL - S - T - C where all trigonometric functions in first quandrant are positive. S, T, and C are the first letters of the trigonometric functions that are positive in quadrant 2, 3, and 4, respectively. This also means that in the same quadrant, their reciprocals are also positive. For the given above, it is in Quadrant 3 where T is positive and cosine is negative.
