Problem 23

Given information

Note that given another population of bacteria triples every hour and starts with bacteria and use it to estimate the rate of growth of the bacteria population after hours.

Step-by-step explanation

It's important to remember that the bacterial population starts at and triples every hour. This means we want to add a term that multiplies the number of bacteria by three for every hour that has gone.

Therefore, we may use the equation to model its growth, where is the number of bacteria alive after hours.
