A culture of bacteria has an initial population of 8300 bacteria and doubles every 10 hours. Using the formula Pt=P0*2^t/d , where Pt is the population after t hours, P0 is the initial population, t is the time in hours and d is the doubling time, what is the population of bacteria in the culture after 3 hours, to the nearest whole number?

10,219 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the population of bacteria in a culture given the formula for the population increase.

From the question, we know the formula to use is

Pt=Po*2^t/d

From the parameters in the question, we identify that Pt is ?, Po is 8300 bacteria , t is 3 hours and d is 10 hours which is the doubling time. Inserting these figures we have;

Pt = 8300 * 2^(3/10)

Pt = 8300 * 2^0.3

Pt = 10,218.5

Pt = 10,219 bacteria to the nearest whole number

the amount you'd have after the work is $1.55

step-by-step explanation:

you subtract 95% from $31.
