As per the given information;

Bacteria triples every month.

Originally, there were 4 bacterial cells.

We are suppose to find how many there will be after 15 months.

Hence we can say , the number of bacteria after n month can be given using the exponential growth function

a_n=4*3^n

So number of bacteria after 15 month will be

a_{15}=4*3^{15}

ivann1987 [24]

The number of sugar cubes in the box is 180

<h3>How to determine the number of sugar cubes?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Layers = 5
  • Pieces = 2 or 3
  • Cups of tea = 61 and 88

Multiply 61 and 88 by 2 and 3

61 * 2 = 122

61 * 3 = 183

88 * 2 = 176

88 * 3 = 264

The number of sugar cubes cannot be 122 and 264, because they are out of the range

So, we have:

183 and 176

There are 5 layers.

This means that the number of sugar cubes is divisible by 5.

The only number between 176 and 183 that is divisible by 5 is 180

Hence, the number of sugar cubes is 180
