Leticia Cox is a biochemist. She is testing two different types of drugs that induce cell growth. She has selected two cultures
of 1000 cells each. To culture A, she administers a drug that raises the number of cells by 200 each day and every day thereafter. Culture B gets a drug that increases cell growth by 8% each day and every day thereafter. Assuming no cells die, how many cells will have grown in each culture by the end of the seventh day? a. Culture A: 1400 cells Culture B: 713 cells c. Culture A: 713 cells Culture B: 1400 cells b. Culture A: 800 cells Culture B: 517 cells d. Culture A: 517 cells Culture B: 800 cells
Since the number of cells increases by 200 each day and every day thereafter, then after seven days the number of cells will increase by
2. Culture B.
The initial number of cells was 1,000. Since the number of cells increases 8% each day and every day thereafter, then after seven days the number of cells will be
The number of cells that have grown by the end of the seventh day is
