A bacteria culture starts with 500 bacteria and doubles in size every half hour.1
(a) How many bacteria are there after 3 hours?
We are told “. . . doubles in size every half hour.” Let’s make a table of the time and population:
t 0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0
bacteria 500 1000 2000 4000 8000 16000 32000
Thus, after three hours, the population of bacteria is 32,000.
(b) How many bacteria are there after t hours?
In t hours, there are 2t doubling periods. (For example, after 4 hours, the population has doubled 8
times.) The initial value is 500, so the population P at time t is given by
P(t) = 500 · 2
2t

Answer:
The slope is 3/2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, simply divide the rise by the run. The rise of this line can be found by subtracting one y coordinate by another (it doesn't matter which by which). The run can be found by subtracting one x coordinate by another (it doesn't matter which by which).
So, let's say, for the y coordinates, I choose to subtract 3 by 0. 3 - 0 = 3. 3 is your rise.
For the x coordinates, I can choose to subtract -5 by -7. -5 - (-7) = 2. 2 is your run.
The slope is rise/run, so your answer is 3/2, which, in decimal form, is 1.5.
Hope this helped!
