A particular colony of bacteria is being grown in a petri dish, and is expected to double every hour and a half. A biologist predicts the colony will eventually cover the petri dish.
How many minutes will elapse between the time when the petri dish is half full and when it
is completely full?

The customer price index(cpi), which measures the cost of a typical package of customer goods,was 208.8 in 2011 and 244.1 in 2016.let x=11 corresponding to the year 2011 an estimate to cpi into 2013 and 2014. assume that the data can be modeled by a straight line and the trend to continue idenfinitely.use data points to find such a line and then estimate the requested quantities
