Problem 3

A certain species of fish in a lake reproduces at a rate that doubles its population every 2424 hours. The initial population of the fish was 200200. If the population tt hours after the initial observation is represented by the function p(t)=2002t24p\(\left\)(t\(\right\))=200\(\cdot{2^{\frac{t}{24}\)}}, how long will it take for the fish population to reach 40004000? Round your answer to two decimal places.
