A biologist figures that the population of cane toads in a certain lake he is studying can be modeled by the equation

,

where is the number of days elapsed in 2015. For example, represents January 1, represents January 2, and so forth.

If this model continues, in what month will the population of cane toads in the lagoon reach 5,000?

A biologist figures that the population of cane toads in a certain lake he is studying can be modeled by the equation

,

where is the number of days elapsed in 2015. For example, represents January 1, represents January 2, and so forth.

Assuming that this has been the model for their growth throughout the previous year as well, in what month did the population hit 100 cane toads?
