The number of bacteria present in a culture after t minutes is given as where k is a constant. if there are 8520 bacteria present after 15 minutes, find k and round to the nearest thousandth. a. 0.143 c. 2.143 b. 32.136 d. 0.13

option:A

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the problem is modeled with the help of a function

now we are given that at

now we need to find the value of k with the help of the given condition

hence putting the value of G using the given equation we get that

taking logarithmic function on both side we have

Hence option A is correct.

y=mx+b

step-by-step explanation:

m slope

b y-intercept
