Henrietta did an experiment. She started out with 800 bacteria cells. She found that the growth rate of the bacteria cells was 3.2%. Sketch the graph that represents the situation. Label the y-intercept and the point that represents the projected bacteria population 35 h from the time Henrietta started the experiment. I have the formula: f(x) = 800(1 + 0.032)^x f(x) = 800(1 + 0.032)^35 But I'm having a hard time figuring out how to graph it

Question

Henrietta did an experiment. She started out with 800 bacteria cells. She found that the growth rate of the bacteria cells was 3.2%. Sketch the graph that represents the situation. Label the y-intercept and the point that represents the projected bacteria population 35 h from the time Henrietta started the experiment. I have the formula:
f(x) = 800(1 + 0.032)^x
f(x) = 800(1 + 0.032)^35

But I'm having a hard time figuring out how to graph it
