Alab worker monitors the growth of a bacteria colony starting at 9: 00 a. m. at that time, there are 100 bacteria. according to the exponential function f(x) = 100(4)x, the bacteria quadruple every hour. which equation could you use to determine the number of bacteria in the colony after 6 hours?

We know that the exponential growth of the Bacteria's population is model by the function , so to find the number of bacteria after 6 hours, we just need to evaluate our function at . In other words, we are going to replace  with 6 in our function:




We can conclude that the we should use the equation: to find the number of bacteria in the colony after 6 hours. Evaluating the function we get that the number is 409,600.

Answer for 2: his profit would be $2.88 explanation: you have to first multiply 72 and 0.12 together to get $8.64 once you do that you know how much money the shopkeeper made from selling the candy bars individually. so you have to do 8.64-5.76=2.88 hope that ; )answer for 3: yeah i’m sorry i have no idea what number 3 is. i’m sorry i couldn’t with that.
