N=N0e^0.04t
a culture contains 25,000 bacteria
and grows at the rate of 7.5% per her hour. how many bacteria will be present in 24 hours?
A=25,000
r=7.5% (0.075)
n=24h
Solution
N=N0ert
initial population N0=25,000
rate r=7.5% =(0.075)
time t=24
number of bacteria that will be present in 24 hours=25000*e0.075*24
number of bacteria that will be present in 24 hours=25000*6.04964014
number of bacteria that will be present in 24 hours=151241
