It is given that the bacteria in a colony doubles every 8 hours.

To find the population of bacteria 24 hours from now, we need to find the population of bacteria after every 8 hours.

The present population of the bacteria is 9315.

After 8 hours, the bacteria becomes double. So, the number of bacteria becomes 9315 x 2 = 18630.

Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 18630 x 2 = 37260.

Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 37260 x 2 = 74520.

Thus, after 24 hours from now, the population of the bacteria is 74520.

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can conclude that ΔGHI is congruent to ΔKJI, because you can see/interpret that there all the angles are congruent with one another, like with vertical angles (∠GIH and ∠KIJ) and alternate interior angles (∠H and ∠J, ∠G and ∠K).

We also know that we have two congruent sides, since it provides the information that line GK bisects line HJ, meaning that they have been split evenly (they have been split, with even/same lengths).

<u><em>So now we have three congruent angles, and two congruent sides. This is enough to prove that ΔGHI is congruent to ΔKJI,</em></u>
