The scenario that can be modeled by an exponential function is:
a population of bacteria that doubles every hour.
In this case, the population increases by a factor of 2 every hour, which is characteristic of exponential growth. The other scenarios describe linear growth or different rates of pay, which do not follow an exponential model.
