Question 1205342: Biology For a certain population of cells, the number of
cells at time t is given by N D N0.2t=k/, where N0 is the number of
cells at t D 0 and k is a positive constant. (a) Find N when t D k.
(b) What is the significance of k? (c) Show that the time it takes to
have population N1 can be written
t=k log2 N1/N0

What this post is about ?
I am asking because the post itself is UNREADABLE.
For logarithmic and exponential functions in biology, see the lessons
- Population growth problems
- Bacteria growth problems
in this site.
Find there many typical solved word problems on population growth/decay.
Learn the associated words, terms, terminology, phrases, formulas . . . ideas . . . and the whole subject from there.
