Homework Answers
I have used the standard definition of
Relative growth rate. Hope this is fine. Simply growth rate will be
d(b)/dt. In this case both are zero for t=5.

The number of bacteria in a culture is given by the function n(t) 900e.5t where t is measured in hours. (a) What is the relative rate of growth of this bacterium population? (b) What is the initial population of the culture? (c) How many bacteria will the culture contain at time t-5 hours? License Points possible: 1 Unlimited attempts

The growth rate at t = 0 hours is bacteria per hour. When a bactericide is added to a nutrient broth in which bacteria are growing, the bacterium population continues to grow for a while, but then stops growing and begins to decline. The size of the population at time t (hours) is b = 65 +63t - 6242. Find the growth rates at t = 0 hours, t = 3 hours, and t = 6 hours. The growth rate...
