On July 5th, a slice of watermelon was left out on the back porch. That evening, 4 fruit flies discovered it and began using it as a food source. From that day forward, the fruit fly population grew by 25% each day.
Write and use an exponential function to represent the expected population of the fruit flies on July 20th if this growth rate continues.
y=4(1.25)x
