Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The bacterial increase a factor of 31 every day ,
Day 0 = 1 bacterium = 31^0
Day 1 = 31 bacterial = 31¹
Day 2 = 31× 31 bacterial = 31²
Day 3 = 31 × 31 × 31 bacterial = 31³
And so on,
Then, nth day will have
Day n = 31ⁿ bacterial
So, when will the bacterial be 1,000,000,000
Then,
31ⁿ = 1,000,000,000
Take the Natural logarithmic to base 31 of both sides
Log_31 (31)ⁿ = Log_31 (1,000,000,000)
n•Log_31 (31) = Log_31 (1,000,000,000)
Then, log_a (a) = 1
n = Log_31 (1,000,000,000)
