what function can be used to find the number of bacteria present at the end of h hours?

There are 1,000 bacteria in a petri dish. the number of bacteria increases 20% each hour.

1 answer

The exponential growth formula can be used to find the number of bacteria present at the end of h hours. The formula is:

N = N0 * (1 + r)^h

Where:
N = the final number of bacteria
N0 = the initial number of bacteria (in this case, 1,000)
r = the growth rate (in this case, 20% or 0.20)
h = the number of hours

By substituting the values into the formula, we can find the number of bacteria present at the end of h hours.
