A petri dish contains cells of a certain strain of bacteria. Each bacterial cell in the dish divides in half approximately every 6 minutes. The curve of
best fit that models the number of bacterial cells in the dish is given by the equation f(x) = 4.2.1.1 , where x represents the number of minutes
and y represents the number of cells. Which value most likely represents the initial number of bacterial cells in the petri dish?
A.10 cells
B.5 cells
C. 2 cells
D. 1 cell
