Answer:
B, The initial number of bacteria increases at a rate of 24% each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
I think the answer is B because it is the one that closely matches the problem. 312 is multiplied by 1.24 with an exponent. Just eyeballing it, it's multiplied by itself and then an increase of 24%. Also, none of the other statements seem to be correct, D not even making sense in the scope of the problem. Hope this helps, good luck.

Finding the Number
To find the number, we have to translate the problem above to an algebraic equation. The algebraic equation refers to the statement of the equality of two algebraic expressions.
Equation:
Let "x" be the number.
4 is divided by a number - 4/x
3 divided by the number decreased by 2 - 3/x-2
"4 is divided by a number is equal to 3 divided by the number decreased by 2"
4/x = 3/x-2
Solution:
Cross multiply.
4/x = 3/x-2
x(3) = 4(x-2)
3x = 4x - 8
(Combine similar terms.)
3x - 4x = - 8
- x = - 8
- x/- 1 = - 8/- 1
x = 8
Final Answer:
8
Checking:
4/x = 3/x-2
4/8 = 3/8-2
1/2 = 3/6
1/2 = 1/2 ✔
Answer:
f(x)=-13
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute x with -2
4 times -2 is -8
-8-5 is -13
Thus f(x)=-13
