Have a nice day hope this helps
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.
An exponential function is given by:
y = abˣ
where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.
Let y represent the population of bacteria after x hours.
Given that he starts his experiment with 500 bacteria, hence
a = 500
The bacteria grow at a rate of 16% per hour, hence:
b = 100% + 16% = 1.16
The exponential equation becomes:
y = 500(1.16)ˣ
After 8 hours:
y = 500(1.16)⁸ = 1639
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.

Answer:
the pattern is +2, +6, +10, +14, +18 etc
so its in increment of 4
the rest is trivial
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x < -24(option
Step-by-step explanation:
-¼x - 12 > -6
Add 12 to both sides
-¼x - 12+12 > -6+12
-¼x > 6
Divide both sides by -¼
x < 6 ÷ -¼
Please note that the inequality sign changes when divided by negative (minus). This is a rule in inequalities.
x < 6 × -4
x < -24
