Question 1150358
This is an example of exponential population growth. We can use the population growth equation which is in the form {{{B[t] = B[o]*(R)^(t/T)}}} where {{{B[t]}}} is an the population of bacteria after t minutes {{{B[o]}}} is the initial populaion R is the rate of growth or decay, t is time in minutes and T is the time constant or time which it takes to reach one full growth or decay. Plugging in our given values we get the equation for bacteria as {{{B[t] = 350*(3)^(t/18)}}}
