This is the concept of exponential growth, To get the number of bacteria after 10 days we use the formula:
f(t)=ae^(kt)
where;
a=initial number=5000
k=constant of proportionality= 0.04
t=time=10 days
f(t)=future number
thus the number of bacteria in 10 days will be:
f(t)=5000e^(0.04*10)
f(t)=7,459.12
The answer is 7,459.12
Answer:
Percent Change Formula: [(new - old)/old] * 100
Step-by-step explanation:
New - old
80 - 20 = 60
Difference between new - old divided by old
60/20 = 3
Previous quotient times 100
3*100 = 300
Percent Change is 300%
Check your answer
300% of 20 is 60
20 + 60 = 80
I believe that the answer is -18.
