The number of bacteria in a certain culture doubled every hour. if there were 30 bacteria present in the culture initially, how many bacteria will be present at the end of the 8th hour?

The number of bacteria after will be

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the initially 30 bacteria present in the culture.

Also, the number of bacteria got doubled every hour.

So, using the equation

Where is number of bacteria after hours.

is bacteria present initially.

is the common ration, in our problem it is given that bacteria doubles every hour. So,

And is the number of hours. In our problem we need amount of bacteria at the end of hours. So,

Plugging values in the formula we get,

So, number of bacteria after will be

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
