A scientist is conducting an experiment on two types of bacteria to determine which type will grow faster in a pool. After collecting data for two weeks, she finds that she can model the growth rates as follows:

Bacteria 1: y = 4x

Bacteria 2: y = 4x2

In these models, y represents the number of bacteria colonies and x represents the number of hours.
Based on these models, which type of bacteria is growing faster?
