A culture of bacteria has an initial population of 8600 bacteria and doubles every 5 hours. Using the formula Pt=P0*2^t/d , where Pt is the population after t hours, P0 is the initial population, t is the time in hours and d is the doubling time, what is the population of bacteria in the culture after 7 hours, to the nearest whole number?

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
