Algebra.Com's Answer #93422 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The instantaneous growth rate of a population is the rate at which it is growing at every instant in time. The instantaneous growth rate r of a colony of bacteria t hours after the start of an experiment is given by the function r=0.01t3-0.03t2+0.08 for 0 is less than or equal to t less than or equal to 7. Find the times for which the instantaneous growth rate is zero \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "0.01t^3-0.03t^2+0.08 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "Comment: I have seen this problem posted before.
