Okay so the table represents B, in one hour of work, the person will make 18.25 (you get this by dividing 36.50 by two because that is how much they made in two hours, we need to know how much they make in one)
Therefore, the equation for A, which has to be less than B, would be either be Y=18x or Y=18.1x
The slope would be undefined, because it would be going straight vertical.
From the calculation, the growth rate is 0.88.
<h3>What is the growth rate?</h3>
To find the relative growth rate
P1 = Poe^rt
P2 = Poe^rt
Thus;
1920 = Poe^4r ------ (1)
1966080 =Poe^12r -------(2)
P2/P1 gives;
1966080/1920 = Poe^12r/Poe^4r
1024 = e^12r/e^4r
1024 =e^8r
1024 = (e^r)^8
2^10 = (e^r)^8
e^r = 2^1.25
e^r = 2.38
r = ln(2.38)
r = 0.88
The initial size of the culture is;
1920 = Poe^(0.88 * 4)
Po = 1920/e^(0.88 * 4)
Po = 57
The expression for the exact number of bacteria after t hours is
P(t) = 57e^0.08t
The growth (in bacteria per hour) after 9.5 hours is
P(t) = 57e^(0.88 * 9.5)
P(t) = 243544
For the number to reach 72,000;
72,000 = 57e^0.88t
72,000/57 = e^0.88t
ln 126 = ln[e^0.88t]
4.8 = 0.88t
t = 4.8/0.88
t = 5.5 hours
