A culture of bacteria has an initial population of 41000 bacteria and doubles every 5 hours. Using the formula P t = P 0 ⋅ 2 t d

P t ​ =P 0 ​ ⋅2 d t ​ , where P t P t ​ is the population after t hours, P 0 P 0 ​ is the initial population, t is the time in hours and d is the doubling time, what is the population of bacteria in the culture after 14 hours, to the nearest whole number?

Answer:

Population of bacteria in culture after 14 hours is 285541.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with P_{t} =P_{0}(2)^{\frac{d}{t}}

Here initial population is 41000 , t=5 and d=14

Plug in these values into the formula

P_{14} =41000(2)^{\frac{14}{5} }

Simplify

P_{14}= 41000(2)^{2.8}

     =41000(6.9644)

     =285540.5847...

To the nearest whole number is 285541.

Write the polynomial in standard form. Then name the polynomial based on its degree and number of terms.
gavmur [86]
To answer the question, simplify the polynomial by adding those that has the same degree of variable,
                                   6 - 3x + (6x³ - 2x³)
                                   6 - 3x + 4x³
Rearrange the polynomial with decreasing exponent or x,
                                     4x³ - 3x + 6
This is a third-degree polynomial.
