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
