The accompanying table shows the number of bacteria present in a certain culture over a 6 hour period, where x is the time, in h

ours, and y is the number of bacteria. Write an exponential regression equation for this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest thousandth. Using this equation, determine the number of bacteria present after 15 hours, to the nearest whole number.

The number of bacteria present after 15 hours is 18928

<h3>How to determine the exponential equation?</h3>

An exponential equation is represented as;

y = ab^x

Where

a = y, when x = 0

From the table, we have:

y = 1796 when x = 0

So, we have:

y = 1796b^x

Also, we have the point (1, 2097)

This gives

2097 = 1796b^1

Divide by 1796

b = 1.17

Substitute b = 1.17 in y = 1796b^x

y = 1796(1.17)^x

This means that the exponential equation is y = 1796(1.17)^x

After 15 hours, we have:

y = 1796(1.17)^15

Evaluate

y = 18928

Hence, the number of bacteria present after 15 hours is 18928

Solve for b: 3b – 5 = 43
Thepotemich [5.8K]

we have the following:

3b-5=43

solving for b:

\begin{gathered} 3b-5=43 \\ 3b=43+5 \\ b=\frac{48}{3} \\ b=16 \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is 16
