There is a population of 60,000 bacteria in a colony. If the number of bacteria doubles every 274 hours, what will the population be 1,096 hours from now?

Population is 960 000

Step-by-step explanation:   At the beginning time is zero and

population 60 000.    We can count how many doubling happens.

Adding 274 hours four times, we get   274 , 548 , 822 and 1096.

So population doubles 4 times and we get numbers

120 000   240 000   480 000  and 960 000

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
