Aculture started with 5000 bacteria after 5 hours it grew to 6500 bacteria predict how many bacteria will be present after 16 hours

After 16 hours bacterial count will be 11600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bacterial growth is always an exponential growth in a given culture.So the formula for the growth will be

Final counts of bacteria = Initial counts ×

Given from first part Initial counts = 5000

Final counts= 6500 and time of growth = 5 hours

Then we will get the value of rate of growth of bacteria from the bacteria

⇒ 6500 = 5000×

Now again to get the value of bacteria after 16 hours

Final Count = 5000×

                   = 5000×2.32

                   = 11600

the formula of a slope:

we have the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3). substitute:
