3. Dr. Silas studies a culture of bacteria under a microscope. The function represents the number of bacteria t hours after Dr. Silas begins her study.
(a) What does the value 1200 represent in this situation?
(b) What does the value 1. 8 represent in this situation?
(c) The number of bacteria in a second study is modeled by the function.
What does the value of 1000 represent in this situation?
What does the difference of 1200 and 1000 mean between the two studies?
I believe the answers are
a) 1200 represents the initial culture number of bacteria.
b) 1. 8 represents the growth rate of the bacteria per hour
c) (This is the one I need help on)
