Answer:


p {e}^(20r) = 600


p {e}^(30r) = 1000


{e}^(10r) = (5)/(3)


r = (1)/(10) ( ln(5) - ln(3) )


p {e}^(2 ln(5) - 2 ln(3) ) = 600


(25)/(9) p = 600


p = 216


{e}^{( (1)/(10)( ln(5) - ln(3))t } = 2


(1)/(10) ( ln(5) - ln(3) )t = ln(2)


t = (10 ln(2) )/( ln(5) - ln(3) ) = 13.56 \: min


p(t )= 600 {e}^{ ((1)/(10) ( ln(5) - ln(3) ))t}


p(105) = 128104


600 {e}^{ ((1)/(10) ( ln(5) - ln(3)))t } = 11000


t = 56.94 \: min

- Initial size of culture: 216

- Doubling period: about 13.56 minutes

- Population after 105 minutes: 128,104

- Time when population reaches 11,000: about 56.94 minutes
