A scientist is growing two species of bacteria. She defines a variable t that represents the number of days after the growth begins. The number of bacteria after t days is defined by: Species A: y=1000∙2^(t/3)
Species B: y=1000∙2^3t
(a) how many bacteria does each species start out with?

Respuesta :

i want to know the answer

Number of bacteria each species start out with for the given exponential growth function is equals to 1000.

What is exponential growth function?

" Exponential growth function is defined as the the process of the increment in the initial quantity over the period of time 't'."

Formula defined

Exponential model

[tex]y =y_{0} e^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]y =[/tex]growth in the quantity

[tex]y_{0}[/tex] = initial quantity

[tex]k=[/tex] exponential growth

[tex]t=[/tex] time taken to grow

According to the question,

Given exponential function,

For Species A :  [tex]y=1000 (2^{\frac{t}{3} } )[/tex]

For Species B :  [tex]y=1000 (2^{3t} )[/tex]

't' represents the number of days after the growth begins

a. For the given condition of the exponential growth function ,

t = 0 when species start out with

For species A

   [tex]y=1000 (2^{\frac{0}{3} } )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=1000[/tex]

For species B

   [tex]y=1000 (2^{3(0) } )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=1000[/tex]

Hence, number of bacteria each species start out with for the given exponential growth function is equals to 1000.
