To find the number of crickets after 2 years, we need to plug in x = 2 * 12 = 24 into the function f(x) = 160 * 2^x.
f(24) = 160 * 2^24 = 2,684,354,560 crickets.
Therefore, there will be 2,684,354,560 crickets after 2 years.
Suppose a population of 160 crickets doubles in size every month. The function f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals 160 times 2 superscript x baseline gives the population after x months. How many crickets will there be after 2 years?
