Henry is conducting an experiment with 800 bacteria. he found the exponential growth rate to be 2.7% per hour. what is the amount of bacteria present after 21 hours? round to the nearest whole number. (hint: use the exponential growth formula: y = b(1+r)^t )

The solution to the problem is as follows:

Given:

Rate = 2.7% per hour

t = 21 hours

Formula:

y = b(1+r)^t

Solution:

= 800((3.7)^21)

6.8442552e+14

The amount of bacteria present after 21 hrs would be 6.8442552e+14.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
