Explanation:
<u>Question 1: Write down the differential equation the mass of the bacteria, m, satisfies: m′= .2m</u>
<u></u>
a) By definition: 
b) Given: 
c) By substitution: 
<u>Question 2: Find the general solution of this equation. Use A as a constant of integration.</u>
a) <u>Separate variables</u>

b)<u> Integrate</u>


c) <u>Antilogarithm</u>



<u>Question 3. Which particular solution matches the additional information?</u>
<u></u>
Use the measured rate of 4 grams per hour after 3 hours

First, find the mass at t = 3 hours

Now substitute in the general solution of the differential equation, to find A:

Round A to 1 significant figure:
<u>Particular solution:</u>

<u>Question 4. What was the mass of the bacteria at time =0?</u>
Substitute t = 0 in the equation of the particular solution:

The easiest way is if it doesn't need to be simplified. Multiply -2.105 by

. You get the fraction

. While this is technically the answer, you can simplify this down to

. Because 421 is a prime number, this can not be simplified any further. Therefore, the solution is

.
