PLEASE HELP ME FFS A culture is tested for bacteria and has 1.3 million bacteria. The culture is then tested every 15 minutes and each time it is tested there are 3.5 times more bacteria.

How many bacteria in millions will there be in the culture after 30 minutes?

Round to the nearest hundredth.

1.3
4.55
15.93
55.74

55.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the culture was tested and then the countdown started, you need to multiply the initial value by 3.5. Since it is tested once every 15 minutes, it will be tested two more times by the time 30 minutes is up; a total of 3 times tested.

1.3 x 3.5 = 4.55

4.5 x 3.5 = 15.925

15.925 x 3.5 = 55.7375

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:

non hispanic white population

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
