Answer: The bacteria took 1 hour and 40 minutes to fill the initial bottle.

Step-by-step explanation: The bacteria took more time to double from 1 cell to a bottle full of cells. Once the bottle was full, each cell in the full bottle doubled, causing an additional bottle to be filled in 5 minutes. Then the 2 full bottles doubled in the next 5 minutes, causing all 3 bottles to be full.

The growth rate is exponential, it doubles every time interval. So by the time you have one bottle, after the next interval you have 2, 4 and so forth.

What is the completely factored form of d4-8d2+16
Cloud [144]
Solution:

1) Rewrite it in the form {a}^{2}-2ab+{b}^{2}, where a={d}^{2} and b=4
{({d}^{2})}^{2}-2({d}^{2})(4)+{4}^{2}

2) Use Square of Difference: {(a-b)}^{2}={a}^{2}-2ab+{b}^{2}
{({d}^{2}-4)}^{2}

3) Rewrite {d}^{2}-4​ in the form {a}^{2}-{b}^{2}​​ , where a=d and b=2
{({d}^{2}-{2}^{2})}^{2}
​​
4) Use Difference of Squares: {a}^{2}-{b}^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)
​{((d+2)(d-2))}^{2}

5) Use Multiplication Distributive Property: {(xy)}^{a}={x}^{a}{y}^{a}
{(d+2)}^{2}{(d-2)}^{2}
