A culture started with 1,000 bacteria. After 6
hours, it grew to 1,300 bacteria. Predict how
many bacteria will be present after 10 hours.
Round your answer to the nearest whole
number.
P = Aekt

1,500 bacteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what P=Aekt means but I understand the rest:

Hour 0: 1,000 bacteria

Hour 6: 1,300 bacteria

We can conclude from this evidence that it takes 6 hours to grow 300 new bacteria.

Let's use a ratio

new bacteria : hours

      300          :     6

        50          :      1

       500         :     10

So we get 500 new bacteria after 10 hours. Using our original population of 1,000 and our new added members, we get 1,500 bacteria at Hour 10.

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.
