Question

In a lab experiment, 1900 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such

that the number of bacteria is able to double every 29 hours. How many bacteria
would there be after 6 hours, to the nearest whole number?

Answer 1

Answer:2193

Explanation:

y= 1900(2)^6/29

Answer 2

393 bacteria

Explanation:

First find how much it would increase per hours :

1900 / 29 = 65.5172414

Then take this and multiply it by 6 to get :

393.103448

Round it to the nearest whole number to get:

393 bacteria
