I believe the answer is "C"
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.
An exponential function is given by:
y = abˣ
where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.
Let y represent the population of bacteria after x hours.
Given that he starts his experiment with 500 bacteria, hence
a = 500
The bacteria grow at a rate of 16% per hour, hence:
b = 100% + 16% = 1.16
The exponential equation becomes:
y = 500(1.16)ˣ
After 8 hours:
y = 500(1.16)⁸ = 1639
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.

The lowest possible fraction is 3/4 because 0.75=75/100 then you divide both terms by 25 and get 3/4
<span>The triangle on paper is 5 inches wide by 7 inches high.</span><span>
</span><span>
If 1 inch on paper is equal to 1.5 feet on paper, then you need to multiply all dimensions by 18 because 1.5 feet is equal to 18 inches and you are getting 18 inches on the real banner for every inch on the paper banner. </span><span>
5 * 18 = 90 inches from the base of the rear triangle.</span><span>
7 * 18 = 125 inches for the height of the rear triangle. </span><span>
</span><span>The area of the paper triangle will be 5 * 7 / 2 = 35/2 square inches.</span><span>
The area of the rear triangle will be 90 * 125 / 2 = 5625 square inches. </span><span>
regarding feet:
The base of the real banner will be 125/12 = 10.41666666....... feet.</span><span>
the height of the real banner will be 90 / 12 = 7.5 feet.</span><span>
the area of the real banner will be 5625 / 12^1 = 5625 / 144 = 39.0625 square feet.</span><span>
