Danny conducts a lab test where by introducing a antibiotic to bacteria. To begin with, he had 1,000,000 CFU per milliliter of bacteria and found that the number of bacteria decreased at a rate of 22 percent per day. The situation can be modeled by the equation
b(t)=1,000,000(0.78)t, where b is the amount of bacteria after t days. Which one of the following statements about the key features of the exponential graph for this situation is true?
