Question

A microbiologist during a study on a culture of 250 bacteria noticed that he can model the number of bacteria after t number of days by
the equation B = 250 x 4^t In this equation what does 4^t represent?
A The number of bacteria increases by t after 4 days
B. The number of bacteria increases by a factor of teach day for 5 days.
C. The number of bacteria increases by a factor of 4 each day
D. The number of bacteria increases by 4 each day

i need help please!!

Answer 1

This answer would be A

Answer 2

From the given equation, $4^{t}$ represent the number of bacteria increases by a factor of 4 each day.

What is an equation?

An equation can be defined as a mathematical statement consisting of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions that have the same value.

A microbiologist during a study on a culture of 250 bacteria noticed that he can model the number of bacteria after t number of days by the equation

$B = 250 \times$ $4^{t}$

t stands for training days(Add one to the power of 4 every day)

Every day is four time more than the day before.

So, the number of bacteria increases by a factor of 4 each day.

So, this answer is Option C.
