A pharmaceutical company is testing a new antibiotic. The number of bacteria present in a sample when
the antibiotic is applied is 14000. Each hour, the number of bacteria present decreases by half. The
number of bacteria remaining r(n) is an exponential function of the number n of hours since the
antibiotic was applied.
