Two bacteria cultures are being studied in a lab. At the start, bacteria A had a population of 60 bacteria and the number of bacteria was tripling every 8 days. Bacteria B had a population of 30 bacteria and was doubling every 5 days. Determine the number of days it will take for both bacteria cultures to have the same population.

It will be after t days, where
60 * 3^(t/8) = 30 * 2^(t/5)
Now just solve for t
60 * 3^(t/8) = 30 * 2^(t/5)
Now just solve for t
