A petri dish of bacteria grow continuously at a rate of 200% each day. If the petri dish began with 10 bacteria, how many bacteria are there after 5 days? Use the exponential growth
function f(t) = ger and give your answer to the nearest whole number. Show your work.

2430 bacteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a quantity A, and we have an increase of the X%, the new quantity can be written as:

A + (X%/100%)*A

In this case, we have A = 10 bacteria.

And X% = 200%.

Then if we start with 10 bacteria.

After one day, we will have:

10 bacteria  + (200%/100%)*10 bacteria

= 10 bacteria + 2*10 bacteria = 3*10 bacteria.

After another day, we will have:

3*10 bacteria + (200%/100%)*(3*10 bacteria)

3*10 bacteria  + 2*(3*10 bacteria)

3*(3*10 bacteria)

10 bacteria*(3)^2

We already can see the pattern here.

After t days, we will have:

10 bacteria*(3)^t.

This is the equation f(t) we wanted:

f(t) =10 bacteria*(3)^t

after 5 days, we will have:

f(5) = 10 bacteria*(3)^5 = 2430 bacteria.

yes because they have the same amount of green and blur marbles.

step-by-step explanation:

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
