You can put this solution on YOUR website! A bacteria culture started with a count of 480 at 8:00 A.M. and after t hours is expected to grow to f(t)=480{3/2}^t. estimate the number of bacteria in the culture at noon the same day?
:
t = 4 hrs (8 AM to noon)
:
f(t) = 480 * (3/2)^4
:
Find the value of (3/2)^4 on a calc. It's 5.0625
f(t) = 480 * 5.0625
f(t) = 2430
