A scientist begins an experiment with a culture of 5 bacteria cells.
\n" ); document.write( " Every hour, the number of bacteria cells triples.
\n" ); document.write( " Which equation can be used to represent the number of bacteria cells, y, as it relates to time in hours, x?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I think it would be \"y+=+5%283%5Ex%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
