A population of 100 bacteria in a laboratory culture doubles every 30 min. The function p(x) = 100(2)^x

models the population, where x is the number of

30-min periods.

a. How many bacteria will there be after 4 h?

b. How many bacteria will there be after 1 day? Round to the nearest tenth.

If the value of x increases by 5, how does the value of m(x + 3) change? a) it increases by 5m. b) it increases by 8m. c) it decreases by 5m. d) it decreases by 8m.

Define multiplicative inverse. give an example of a number and its multiplicative inverse.

A. use the formula for continuous compounding with the original example: $1000 invested at 2% for 1 year. record the amount to 5 decimal places. use a calculator. b. compare it to the result using the original compound interest formula with n = 365 calculated to 5 decimal places. which has a larger value? explain.
