Question 1102292: As part of an experiment, a scientist places n bacteria in a growth medium. The growth function g(t)=n2^t gives the number of bacteria present in the growth medium after t hours. The experiment started with 23,500 bacteria. the bacteria is then destroyed at the end of 6 hours. At the end of the 6 hours there were 1,504,000 bacteria. What is a reasonable domain for teh function given this scenario?
A. 0≤t≤23,500
B. 0≤t≤6
C. 6≤t≤23,500
D. 23,500≤t≤1,504,000

The function does not stop at t=6, but the experiment does.
Make your choice.
