The number of bats in a colony is growing exponentially. After 2 years, there were 120 bats. After 5 years, there were 960 bats. If the colony continues to grow at the same rate, how many bats are expected to be in the colony after 8 years? Do not include units in your answer.

Ideal Gas Law

Ideal gas law states that the product of pressure and volume of a gas directly varies with the product of the number of moles, the universal gas constant, and the temperature of the gas.
