Question 697250
Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to an exponential growth model, with a growth rate of 19% per hour.
 Suppose also that a sample culture of 2300 bacteria is obtained from this population.
 Find the size of the sample after five hours. Round your answer to the nearest integer.
:
Let A = amt after 5 hrs
:
A = 2300*(1.19)^5
A = 2300*2.286
A ~ 5489 bacteria after 5 hrs
