Fiona started her study of bacteria growth with 1,000 bacteria in a petri dish. after 1 hour, the count was increased to 1,800. after 2 hours, the count was 3,240. after the third hour showed a count of 5,832, fiona wrote an equation to represent the exponential growth of the bacteria. what exponential growth function did fiona write?

The exponential growth function is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Fiona started her study of bacteria growth with 1,000 bacteria in a Petri dish. After 1 hour, the count was increased to 1,800. After 2 hours, the count was 3,240. After the third hour showed a count of 5,832. Fiona wrote an equation to represent the exponential growth of the bacteria.

To find : What exponential growth function did Fiona write?

Solution :

The general form of an exponential function is ....(1)

Where, a is the initial value and r is the rate factor.

According to question,

Initial value is a=1000

After 1 hour, the count was increased to 1,800.

After 2 hours, the count was 3,240.

After the third hour showed a count of 5,832,

Let x represents the time in hour and y represents thee count of bacteria.

Taking the points (1,1800), (2,3240).

Substitute in equation (1),

  .....(2)

....(3)

Divide equation (3) by (2),

The rate factor is b=1.8

Now, Substitute the value of a and b in equation (1)

Therefore, The exponential growth function is

the multiples of 15 are 15, 30,45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195,   210, 225, 240, 255, 270, 285, 300, 315, 330, 345, 360, 375,   390, 405, 420, 435, 450, 465, 480, 495, 510, 525, 540, 555, 570, 585, 600, 615, 630, 645, 660, 675, 690, 705, 720, and 735.

the factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15.
