Dr. Silas studies a culture of bacteria under a microscope. the function b1(t) = 500(1.6)^t represents the number of bacteria t hours after Dr. Silas begins her study. a) Is this exponential growth or decay? Explain how you know.

b) What does the value 500 represent in this situation?

c) The number of bacteria in a second study is modeled by the function b2(t) = 800(1.6)^t. What is the growth rate, r, for this equation? What does the difference of 500 and 800 mean between the two studies?

PLEASE HELP I REALLY NEED THE CORRECT ANSWERS AND QUICK! THANK YOU TO ANYONE WHO HELPS

the answer is 9.8975

explanation:

when you multiply the "39.59" with the 25% it reduces it and shows its final discounted price. hope this !
