51. Using the scenario below, model the population of bacteria a in terms of the number of minutes, t that pass. Then, choose

math algebra

Answer 1

Answer #1

Initial value = 3 bacteria

After 1 hour it is 37 bacteria

So , we can write the function as

A= Ao e^kt

37 = 3 e^60k

k = 0.04187

A = 3 e^0.04187 t

Plug A = 4* 3

4* 3 = 3 e^0.04187 t

4 = e^0.04187 t

t = 36

about 36 minutes
