The accompanying table shows the number of bacteria present in a certain culture
over a 6 hour period, where x is the time, in hours, and y is the number of bacteria.
Write an exponential regression equation for this set of data, rounding all coefficients
to the nearest hundredth. Using this equation, determine the number of bacteria
present after 14 hours, to the nearest whole number.
