The number of hours, t, that bacteria spread 10-fold can be modeled by the equation B(t) = B0(10)2t. There are 25 bacteria prese

Answer: 1.67 hours.

Explanation:

1) Function that models the number of bacteria:

$B(t)=B_0(10)^{2t}$

2) Bo = 25, then the function is:

$B_0=25(10)^{2t}$

3) To know how many hours will elpase until the number of bactaria is 55,00, you equals B to 55,500 in the equation and solve for t, in this way:

i) start

$55000=25(10)^{2t)$

ii) division property

$2200=10^{2t}$

iii) antilogarithm property

$2t = log_{10}2200$

iv) division property

$t=\frac{log_{10}2200}{2}$

v) Due the operations:

t = 1.67 hours.

Note that the time is less than 2 hours. That sounds fine since after 1 hour there will be 10 times 25 (250 bacteria), and after 2 hours 100 times 25 (2500 bacteria).
