I choose the second one and it is wrong

The mass (in micrograms) of bacteria in a petri dish t days after the culture is started is given by P 500(1.01)^t. Which of the following is true? The mass of bacteria in the petri dish increases by 1 % each day. The mass of bacteria in the petri dish increases by 101% each day. The mass of bacteria in the petri dish increases by 10% each day. The mass of bacteria in the petri dish increases by 5 each day. A and D

Solution

given

P=500(1.01)^t

P=500(1+0.01)^t

rate r =0.01=1%

mass of bacteria in the petri dish increases by 1% each day
