A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

Nuetrik [128]

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

$\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Substitute x = -3, y = -3 into the </u><u>g</u><u>i</u><u>v</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>equation:</u>

$- 3 + 4( - 3) = - 3$

<u>Simplify and Solve:</u>

$- 3 + - 12 \neq - 3$

The point (-3, -3) doesn't satisfy the given equation.
