Question

N=1500(2^018t), t≥0 Find the initial number of cells (N) in the culture, given the exponential function.

Answer 1

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Understand what the question is asking you

It wants to know how much cells do you start off with or in other words how much cells are in the culture when time is 0

Step 2: Set t = 0

$N = 1500(2^{0.18(0)} )$

Step 3: Solve for N

$N = 1500(2^{0.18(0)} )$

$N = 1500(2^{0} )$

$N = 1500(1 )$

$N = 1500$

Therefore when the initial amount of cells there in the culture is 1500
