The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)
<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>
The formula for exponential growth is;
P = P₀e^(rt)
where;
P = current population at time t
P₀ = starting population
r = rate of exponential growth/decay
t = time after start
Thus, from our question we have;
4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)
4500/1500 = e^r
e^r = 3
In 3 = r
r = 1.0986
Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;
P = 1500e^(1.0986t)
For the culture to double, then;
P/P₀ = 2. Thus;
e^(1.0986t) = 2
In 2 = 1.0986t
t = 0.6931/1.0986
t = 0.631 hours

First of all we have to arrange the data in ascending order as shown below:
28, 40, 43, 43, 45, 50, 50
Total number of values = 7
Since the number of values is odd, the median will be the middle value i.e. 4th value which is 43. Median divides the data in two halves:
1st Half = 28, 40, 43
2nd Half = 45, 50, 50
Q1 or the First Quartile is the middle value of the lower or 1st half which is 40.
Q3 or the Third Quartile is the middle value of the upper or second half, which is 50.
IQR or the Inter Quartile Range is the difference of Q3 and Q1.
So, IQR= Q3 – Q1 = 50 – 40 = 10
Thus, IQR for the given data is 10
The average speed is given by:
average speed=(total distance)/(total time)
total time for the first 30 miles was:
time=distance/speed
=30/30
=1 hr
total time for the remaining 30 miles
=30/60
=0.5
hence the average speed will be:
speed=(30+30)/(1+0.5)=60/1.5=40 miles per hour
59 is a rational number
59 is not a irrational number because simply a irrational number is basically
Pi ,E
Or any imperfect squares
A irrational number is a non repeating decimal and has different numbers in each space
