Answer:

Explanation:

Hello! Im doing the same problem for my midterm and I believe the answer would be 0.041x+600.

Since x represents the time, x can be anything. 0.041 would equal the percentage of 4.1% and you need the growth rate times the time to equal your answer. +600 would be what she started out with, which is the bacteria cells. Hope this answers your question!!!
