A population of amoebas in a petri dish will triple in size every hour. At the start of an experiment the population is 800. The function y equals 800 times 3 to the power of x, where x is the number of hours, models the population growth. How many amoebas are in the petri dish after 9 hours?

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)

60.9774

step-by-step explanation:

because when you add 47.6 plus 7.32 equals 54.92

and when you add .0574 + 6= 6.0574

and when you add 54.92 and 6.0574 you get the answer of 60.9774.
