Which bacteria sample (A or B) had a smaller initial population? What was that value?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

B has a smaller initial population of 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

The bacteria with the smaller initial population

The initial population is at x = 0

For bacteria A;

A(x) = 600 when x = 0

For bacteria B, we have:

B(x) = 500(2)^x

Substitute 0 for x

B(x) = 500(2)^0

B(x) = 500*1

B(x) = 500

So; when x = 0

A(x) = 600 and B(x) = 500

Because; 500 < 600

We can conclude that B has a smaller initial population of 500
