Answer:
If there are 5000 bacteria in a colony right now, there will be 5000x2, or 10000 bacteria in the colony in 37 minutes.
If there are 10000 bacteria in the colony in 37 minutes, there will be 20000 bacteria in the colony in 74 minutes, as the bacteria doubles every 34 minutes.

Using a system of equations, it is found that there are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are given as follows:
- Variable x: number of dimes in his pocket.
- Variable y: number of quarters in his pocket.
He has a total of 14 coins, hence:
x + y = 14 -> y = 14 - x.
They are worth $2.75, hence, considering the value of each coin(dimes $0.1 and quarters $0.25), we have that:
0.1x + 0.25y = 2.75
Since y = 14 - x:
0.1x + 0.25(14 - x) = 2.75
x = (0.25*14 - 2.75)/0.15.
x = 5.
y = 14 - x = 14 - 5 = 9.
There are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.
