100 ≤ 6(3)x
16.667 ≤ (3)x
ln 16.667 ≤ x ln 3
Can you solve for x and answer?

Here's the full question it wouldn't let be put it in before A fisherman illegally drops some fish into a pond, and they quickly propagate (reproduce). The population growth of the new specifies is modeled by P(x) = 6(b)^x, where x is the time in weeks following the moment he dropped the fish into the pond and b is a positive unknown base. Suppose that b is 3. Graph this relationship. How long does it take for there to be at least 100 fish in the pond?
