Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population

Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to a continuous exponential growth model. A sample of 1400 bacteria selected from this population reached the size of 1849 bacteria in six hours. Find the hourly growth rate parameter. Note: This is a continuous exponential growth model. Write your answer as a percentage. Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your percentage to the nearest hundredth.
