This can be expressed as exponential growth of the form:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio (rate), t=time
In this case we are given the point (2, 6500) and i=5000 so we can solve for the rate...
6500=5000r^2 divide both sides by 5000
1.3=r^2 take the square root of both sides and note that we know r>0
r=1.3^(1/2) so our equation becomes:
f=5000(1.3)^(1/2)^t and knowing that (a^b)^c=a^(b*c) we can say:
f=5000(1.3)^(t/2) so for t=18
f=5000(1.3)^9
f≈53022 (to nearest whole bacteria)
According to a calculator, this is the answer: 0.1923076923. Hope this helped?

Answer:
y=2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for y.
−2x+y=5
Step 1: Add 2x to both sides.
−2x+y+2x=5+2x
y=2x+5
Answer:
She will exercise for 6 hours in four weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Summer exercises for 0.5 hour on Monday, 0.5 hour on Wednesday, and 0.5 hour on Friday. There are 3 days where she exercises for 0.5 hour.
3 days X 0.5h = 1.5h each week
For four weeks, multiply the hours each week by 4.
1.5h X 4 weeks = 6h
Therefore Summer will exercise for 6 hours over the course of 4 weeks.
