help!!! i will give a medal

Answer 1

What's your ?

Answer 2

i need help with task 1

Answer 3

Problem?

Answer 4

Task 1
Bacteria are the most common example of exponential growth. Research and find a
bacterium that grows exponentially each hour, and determine how much it grows
per hour.
a.
Suppose you start with a single bacterium. Make a table of values showing
the number of bacteria that will be present after each hour for the first 6
hours. Then determine how many bacteria will be present once 24 hours
have passed.
b.
Explain why this table represents exponential growth.
c.
Using this example, explain why any number raised to the zero power is
equal to one.
d.
Write a rule for this table.
e.
Suppose you started with 100 bacteria, but they still grew by the same
growth factor. How would your rule change? Explain your answer

Answer 5

can you help me with it?

Answer 6

Of course!

Answer 7

This will take some time though, lets focus on both a's

Answer 8

Is this science?

Answer 9

no its algebra

Answer 10

Ok, you understand what a is saying right?

Answer 11

not really

Answer 12

bacterium that grows exponentially each hour, and determine how much it grows per hour.

Answer 13

yeah i get that but i dont know how to make a table and it doesnt say what to start at for the bacteria

Answer 14

time #bacteria
0 1
1 2
3 4
4 8
5 16
6 32

b.Explain why this table represents exponential growth.
When x increases by uniform steps, the ratios of succeeding y values is 2. There is a constant factor of 2.

c.Using this example, explain why any number raised to a power of zero isequal to one.

d.Write a rule for this table.
e.Suppose you started with 100 bacteria, but they still grew by the samegrowth factor. How would your rule change? Explain your answer

Answer 15

hour # Ecoli bacteria
0 1
1 2
3 4
4 8
5 16
6 32

Answer 16

how would you do the 24 hour one?

Answer 17

I'll explain that in a minute

Answer 18

hour # Ecoli bacteria
0 1
1 8
2 64
3 512
4 4096
5 32768
6 262144

Answer 19

This is 24hr expression y = 1*8^t
plug in t = 24
y = 8^24, its a big number

Answer 20

4,722,366,482,869,645,213,696 bacteria

Answer 21

So do you get it now?

Answer 22

a little

Answer 23

Ok

Answer 24

Can I have a blue ribbon please?

Answer 25

thnx

Answer 26

Make sure to fan me!

Answer 27
