Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the inequality without the absolute value
-18 < x - 13 < 18
Add 13 to the whole equation
-18 + 13 < x < 18 + 13
Simplify
<u>-5 < x < 31</u>
This is the concept of exponential growth, To get the number of bacteria after 10 days we use the formula:
f(t)=ae^(kt)
where;
a=initial number=5000
k=constant of proportionality= 0.04
t=time=10 days
f(t)=future number
thus the number of bacteria in 10 days will be:
f(t)=5000e^(0.04*10)
f(t)=7,459.12
The answer is 7,459.12
