The number of n bacteria in a culture can be modeled through the continuous growth model. if the there were 100 bacteria initially and the value for k is 0.5, what will the population of the bacteria be in 10 hours, where t is the number of hours? a. 14,841 b. 148 c. 165 d. 22,026 e. 500

A. 14,841

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know what your "continuous growth model" is, or where k fits into it. On the assumption it is ...

... p(t) = 100e^(kt) . . . . t measured in hours

then we can evaluate p(10) as ...

... p(10) = 100e^(0.5·10) = 100e^5 ≈ 14,841

y=mx+b

step-by-step explanation:

m is slope, b is y-intercept
