Answer;


B\text{ = 951}

Explanation;

Here, we want to get the number of bacteria that will be present after 4 hours

What we have to do here is to substitute 4 for t in the equation of the model given

Mathematically, we have this as;


\begin{gathered} B=100e^(0.563t) \\ B=100e^((0.563*4)) \\ B\text{ =950.67 = 951} \end{gathered}
