Question

Determine the inequality that can be used to model when the population of bacteria will be greater than or equal to 656,100. Then solve the inequality for t.

Answer 1

The inequality is 100*$3^{t}$≤ 656100.

The correct option is (B).

What is inequality?

A statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.

Given:

From the table attached below:

a=300, r= 900/300 = 3

As, it is GP

Now,

f(t) = $ar^{t-1}$

f(t) = $300*3^{t-1}$

f(t) = 300/3 *$3^{t}$

f(t) = 100*$3^{t}$

Inequality is used to determine greater than or equal to 656100

100*$3^{t}$≤ 656100
