A scientist in a laboratory was studying a bacteria that can help improve the immune system of the body.
If you were a scientist how will you analyze or illustrate this problem? A certain culture of bacteria doubles every 3 hours, if there are 50 bacterias at 8:00 in the morning, how many bacteriae would be there at 11:00 in the morning of the following day?

Answer:
1.if I were the scientist I will analyze it by checking or finding positive mixtures in a book
Answer:
Through Exponential growth problem formula, 1600 bacteria at 11:00 AM in the morning of the ff day
Step-by-step explanation:
P=Po(b)^t/c
where: P=the final Population
Po=initial population of bacteria=50 bacteria
b= growth factor =doubles(2)
c= time it takes for d growth factor, every3hrs
t= elapsed time=15hrs (fr.8AM to 11AM d ff day)
Soln:
P=50(2)^15/3
=50(2)⁵
=50(32)
=1600
