The relative growth rate for a certain type of bacteria population is 78% per hour. A small culture has formed and in just 5 hours the count shows to be 34,820 bacteria in the culture. What is the initial number of bacteria in the culture? us this formula to solve it and show all work A(t) = Pe^(rt).

Step-by-step explanation:

A(t)=P(e^(rt))

Insert the values as follows:

The equation for "continual" growth (or decay) is A = Pe^(rt), where "A", is the ending amount, "P" is the beginning amount (principal, in the case of money), "r" is the growth or decay rate (expressed as a decimal), and "t" is the time (in whatever unit was used on the growth/decay rate).

34820=P(e^((.78)(5)))

34830=P(49.4024)

704.82335

Hope that helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
