Answer:

7680 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the number of rabbits after x days and let x represent the number of days. This is an exponential growth equation in the form:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

Since there is an initial value of 26 rabbits on the farm and the rabbits double every 30 days, hence the equation becomes:

[tex]y=26(2^{(\frac{x}{30} )})\\\\for\ 240\ days, i.e\ x=240:\\\\y=26(2^\frac{240}{30} )\\\\y=7680\ rabbits[/tex]
