At the beginning of an experiment, the number of bacteria in a colony was counted at time t=O. The number of bacteria in the col
ony t minutes after the initial count modeled by the function B(t)=9(3)^t. What is the average rate of change in the number of bacteria over the first 6 minutes of the experiment?
We have been given that the number of bacteria in the colony t minutes after the initial count modeled by the function . We are asked to find the average rate of change in the number of bacteria over the first 6 minutes of the experiment.
We will use average rate of change formula to solve our given problem.
Upon substituting our given values, we will get:
Therefore, the average rate of change in the number of bacteria is 1092 bacteria per minute.
I am assuming you wrote the problem wrong. Is it a^2? A^2 -4A-21=0 (A-7)(A+3)=0 A=7 A=-3, ignore the negative number because it doesn't make sense if you plug in for a. length=a+3=7+3=10 Width=7=a
