Question 1004037: a bacterial culture is growing exponentially according to the equation y= 250e ^0.07t where y represents the number of bacteria present after t hours have elapsed. (a) how many bacteria are present at the beginning (at t=0) (b) how many are present after 24 hours?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! at 0 hours, t=0
y=250, since e^0=1
at 24 hours
y=250e^(24*0.07); that in 1.68
y=250e^1.68
y=1341 rounded to nearest whole number.
