Answer:
y = x^2 +10x -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic regression generally requires the use of "technology" to aid in finding the equation of the curve of best fit. Use the technology you've been introduced to.

When only a few data points are provided, I prefer to use the Desmos graphing calculator. It shows the equation to be ...
y = x^2 +10x -9

Step-by-step explanation:
I really hope you know how to use your calculator to find regression equations, because in this forum it is impossible to teach you how to do that. I ran the data through my calculator and got the exponential equation as
which means at 4 hours, we started with 1963 bacteria and it is growing at a rate of 114% each hour. Since we started out with an x value of 0, and that value represents the number of bacteria after 4 hours, then time 0 is 4 hours, which means that time 12 is 16 hours. We replace the x in the equation with a 12 and do the math:
which gives us, in the end,
y = 9460
After you measured it you can check if the measurement is correct by knowing radius and arc length using formula,

Hope this helps.
