PLEASE RESPOND ASAP Dr. Silas studies a culture of bacteria under a microscope. The function b1 (t) = 1200 (1.8)^t represents the number of bacteria t hours after Dr. Silas begins her study.

(a) What does the value 1.8 represent in this situation?
(b) The number of bacteria in a second study is modeled by the function b2 (t) = 1000 (1.8)^t.
What does the value of 1000 represent in this situation?
What does the difference of 1200 and 1000 mean between the two studies?

Nicolo paganini's numbers 1184 and 1210 are amicable. the proper divisors of 1184 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 37, 74, 148, 296, and 592. the proper divisors of 1210 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55, 110, 121, 242, and 605. use the definition of amicable (friendly) numbers to show that they are indeed amicable. which of the folowing statement uses the definition of amicable numbers to show that 1184 and 1210 are indeed amicable? o a. o b. ° c. the sum of proper divisors of 1184 is 1210 and the sum of proper divisors of 1210 is 1184 the sum of proper divisors of 1184 is greater than 1210 and the sum of proper divisors of 1210 is greater than 1184 the sum of proper divisors of 1184 is less than 1210 and the sum of proper divisors of 1210 is less than 1184
