Abiologist is studying a form of bacteria that grow by 20% every hour. the graph
below models the growth of the bacteria. the y-intercept is (0, 125) what does that
represent in the context of the problem?

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y > the number of bacteria

x > the number of hours

we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In the context of this problem

The y-intercept is the initial number of bacteria at the begin of the study

The y-intercept is the point (0,125)

therefore

The value of y=125 is the initial number of bacteria at the begin of the study (For x=0)

hope this .
