Answer: The population after 3 hours is 13.9 mill.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have an exponential with:

A  = initial population.

r = constant relative growth rate:

t = time.

The function that models this is:

P(t) = A*e^(k*t)

In this case we know that:

A = 3.9 mill.

r = 0.4225 1.

Then the function that models the population of this yeast cell is:

P(t) = (3.9 mill)*e^(0.4225*t)

where t represents the time in hours.

Then if we want to know the population after 3 hours, we should replace t by 3.

P(3) = (3.9 mill)*e^(0.4225*3) = 13.85 mill.

And we want to round our answer to one decimal place, then we must look at the second decimal place, we can see that is a 5, so we should round up.

The population after 3 hours is 13.9 mill.

Yes they are equivalent, because they both do 30 jumping jacks per minute. If you divide 60/2=30 & 150/5=30. Hope this helps!
