Answer:
y= 8000x + 2000
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the formula we can use the points given in the question:
the slope:
to get the slope we can take the 2 points, (0,2000) and (2,18000) where x values are time and y values are bacteria
now using slope-intercept form we can get which gives a slope of 8000 meaning for each hour there are 8000 new bacteria
intercept:
since we start with 2000 bacteria we know this is the y intercept so when x is 0
formula:
y=8000x + 2000
