  1. The initial number of bacteria present is equal to 270 bacteria.
  2. The number of bacteria that will be in the petty dish after 12 hours is 167818 bacteria.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An exponential function can be defined as a mathematical function whose values are generated by a constant that is raised to the power of the argument. Mathematically, an exponential function is represented by this formula:

f(x) = eˣ

<h3>How to calculate the initial number of bacteria?</h3>

B(t) = 150e^0.585t

When t = 1, we have:

B(1) = 150e^0.585(1)

B(1) = 150e^0.585

B(1) = 269.25 ≈ 270 bacteria.

<h3>How many bacteria will be in the petty dish after 12 hours?</h3>

B(12) = 150e^0.585(12)

B(12) = 150e^7.02

B(12) = 167817.99 ≈ 167818 bacteria.

Why did sectional tensions strengthen during the 1850s
Annette [7]
I would say that the sectional tensions strengthened during the 1850s mostly because of slavery. As you already know, historically, the North and the South of US were very different. The North went out of its way to abolish slavery, whereas the South was pro-slavery. This is what created many tensions, and later on, even more wars between these two sections.
