A bacterial culture is growing at the rate of 1000e^(0.03t) bacteria per t hours. The total increase in bacterial population during the second hour, rounded to the nearest whole number, is

Step 1
To do this, we plug in t=2 into the given equation: 1000e^(0.03(2)) = 1000e^(0.06) ≈ 1061.8 So the rate of growth during the second hour is approximately 1061.8 bacteria per hour. Show more…

A bacteria population is 2000 at time t = 0 and its rate of growth is 1000 · 8t bacteria per hour after t hours. What is the population after one hour? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

A bacteria culture is growing at a rate of r(t) = 3e^(0.4t) thousand bacteria per hour after t hours. How much did the bacteria population increase during the first two hours? (Round your answer to three decimal places). _________________ thousand bacteria
