Question 930229: The number of bacteria in a culture is given by the function
n(t)=995 e^(0.3 t)
where t is measured in hours.
a) what is the relative growth rate of this bacterium population?
b) what is the initial population of the culture?
c) How many bacteria will the culture contain at time t=5?

n(t)=995 e^(0.3 t)
........
a) what is the relative growth rate of this bacterium population? r = 30%
b) what is the initial population of the culture? 995
c) How many bacteria will the culture contain at time t=5
n(5) = 995e^(1.5)= 4,459.28
