    For this case we have an equation of the form:

    f (w) = A * (b) ^ w

    Where,

    A: initial amount

    b: growth rate

    w: number of weeks

    Substituting values we have:

    f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w

    Answer:

    the beetle population can be determined after a number of weeks, w, with the following function:

    f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w
