The population of algae in an experiment has been increasing by 30%
each day. If there were 100 algae at the
beginning of the experiment, predict the
number of algae in 5 days.
First, complete the equation:
Future Amount = 100(1 +0.30)5
Solve. Round to the nearest whole number.
Future Amount = [ ? ) algae
Enter

Given:

Initial population = 100 algae

Growth rate = 30% per day.

Time = 5 days

To find:

The future amount of population.

Solution:

The exponential growth model is

where, a is the initial value, r is the rate of interest in percent and t is time period.

Substituting the given values, we get

Now, solve this.

Therefore, the future value is 371.293 algae.

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.
