For this case we have a function of the form:

y = A * (b) ^ x
Where,
A: it is the initial amount
b: is the growth rate
x: it's time
Substituting values we have:

y = 12880 * (1.30) ^ x
For 20 days we have:

y = 12880 * (1.30) ^ {20}  y = 2447839
Answer:
the amount will be 2447839 pounds in 20 days
