A certain bacterium splits itself into 2 identical cells in 1 day. Each of those new cells is capable of splitting itself into 2
identical cells in 1 day. So the first day there are 2 cells, the second day there are 2 x 2 cells, and so on. Write and evaluate an expression using a base and an exponent to represent the number of cells present at the end of the 7th day.
The correct term would be real numbers because whole numbers only belong in rational numbers. However, real numbers include BOTH ration and irrational numbers.
