Answer: question 5 is C
Question 6 is C
Question 7 is B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

where
x is the time in hours
y is the numbers of bacteria
a is the initial value
b is the base
r is the rate of growth
b=(1+r)
we have that

For x=8, y=3,300
substitute in the exponential function

solve for b

![b=\sqrt[8]{1.1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b%3D%5Csqrt%5B8%5D%7B1.1%7D)

Find the value of r

The equation is equal to

For x=12 hours
substitute the value of x in the equation

Answer: A. 7</h3>
Work Shown:
Replace every 'a' with 2, and replace every b with 3
a^2+b = 2^2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7
