Scientist measure a bacteria population and find that it has 200 individual cells. After 4 days, the number of cells has doubled. Assuming the population grows exponentially, what is its growth rate? Round answer toy he nearest hundredth.

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius

combine all like terms then its just a 2 step equation
