Answer:
Every 1.71 seconds, the bacteria loses 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required [Missing from the question]
Every __ seconds, the bacteria loses 
First, we model the function from t/3 to t.

Apply law of indices

Evaluate each exponent
--- This gives the number of bacteria at time t
At time 0, we have:



Let r be the time 1/2 disappears.
When 1/2 disappears, we have:



So, we have:

Substitute r for t

Substitute 

Divide both sides by 8500


Take log of both sides

Apply law of logarithm

Make r the subject



<em>Hence, it reduces by 1/2 after every 1.71 seconds</em>
