Answer: the population of the culture 6 days after inoculation is 2313.
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
y = b(1 + r)^ t
Where
y represents the population after t days.
t represents the number of days.
b represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
b = 1000
r = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
t = 6 days
Therefore
y = 1000(1 + 0.15)^6
y = 1000(1.15)^6
y = 2313
