A bacteria population is 3000 at time t = 0 and its rate of growth is 1000 · 8t bacteria per hour after t hours.
What is the population after one hour? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
P=3000x e^( 1000 x 8t )is the function t is time, so "after a hour" means that the t is 1. The problem is asking for the population, which is P Substitute t for 1 and you obtain: P= 3000 x e^(1000 x 8 x 1) P=3000e^8000
