A scientist is conducting an experiment on two types of bacteria to determine which type will grow faster in a pool. After collecting data for two weeks, she finds that she can model the growth rates as follows: Bacteria 1: y = 4x Bacteria 2: y = 4x2 In these models, y represents the number of bacteria colonies and x represents the number of hours. Based on these models, which type of bacteria is growing faster? bacteria 1

bacteria 1

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helped:)

The answer to the second one is An exponential function grows faster than a quadratic function.

Step-by-step explanation:

b and c

step-by-step explanation:

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2
