Hyperbolas xy=c are not drawn - just a microscopic dot is drawn in EV.
They're well recognized as conics in AV
The colony doubles every hour, the population is equal to
p = 2^t
<span>Where t </span><span>is the time in hours.</span>
We are able to see this because:
2^0 = 1
2^1 = 2
2^2 = 4
Notice that the x coordinate of the graph corresponds to the time, and the y coordinate corresponds to the population.
<span>Thus at t = 9
</span>p = 2^t
p = 2^9
p = 512.
The correct answer is 512.
