Answer 1

Answer:

This is an exponential function:

• A(s) = 2^s, where A- population of alien's, s - number of splits (or hours)

For the alien population become larger than 79942, time required:

• 2^s > 79942
• log 2^s > log 79942
• s > log 79942/ log 2
• s > 16

17 hours

For the alien population become larger than 330232606, time required:

• 2^s > 330232606
• log 2^s > log 330232606
• s > log 330232606 / log 2
• s > 28

29 hours
