Answer:
The initial population was 2810
The bacterial population after 5 hours will be 92335548
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacterial population growth formula is:

where P is the population after time t,
is the starting population, i.e. when t = 0, r is the rate of growth in % and t is time in hours
Data: The doubling period of a bacterial population is 20 minutes (1/3 hour). Replacing this information in the formula we get:





Data: At time t = 100 minutes (5/3 hours), the bacterial population was 90000. Replacing this information in the formula we get:



Data: the initial population got above and t = 5 hours. Replacing this information in the formula we get:


Answer: The answer is D.

Set up a ratio...6/18=x/27...reduce to 1/3=x/27...cross multiply and solve for x.
3x=27 so x=9
I'm going to use the substitution method.
4x + 4y = -16
-8x - 6y = -20
4x + 4y = -16
- 4x - 4x
--------------------------
4y = -4x - 16
------ ------ ------
4 4 4
y = -x - 4
-8x - 6(-x - 4) = -20
-8x + 6x + 24 = -20
-2x + 24 = -20
- 24 - 24
----------------------------
-2x = 44
------- -------
2 2
x = 22
4(22) + 4y = -16
88 + 4y = -16
- 88 - 88
------------------------
4y = -104
------ ---------
4 4
y = -26
The answer is (22, -26).
