In summary, "Calculus with Exp" is the use of exponential functions in calculus to model real-life situations and analyze natural phenomena in science. The key concepts include the derivative and integral of exponential functions, rules of logarithms, solving differential equations, and applications in biology, chemistry, and physics. Real-life applications include predicting population growth and decay, determining half-life, and analyzing population dynamics. To improve understanding, a strong foundation in calculus and algebra, practice, and seeking help from tutors or online resources are recommended.

For \(\displaystyle P=P_0\times e^{G(t)}\)

and \(\displaystyle G'(t) = a+bt\)

Show \(\displaystyle G(0)=0\)

I get \(\displaystyle G(t) = \int a+bt ~dt = at+\frac{1}{2} b t^2+C\) therefore \(\displaystyle G(0)=C \)

Hi Bushy! ;)

I expect that it's intended that $P(0) = P_0$.

Then we have:
$$P_0 e^{G(0)} = P_0 \quad\Rightarrow\quad e^{G(0)} = 1 \quad\Rightarrow\quad G(0)=0
$$
