Exponential Growth & Decay Bacteria Problems | How To Find Relative Growth Rate | Jakes Math Lessons

MY CALCULUS 2 STUDY GUIDE - https://jakesmathlessons.com/calculus...

In this video I show you an Exponential Growth and Decay Bacteria Problem Solution.
The problem is,
" A bacteria culture grows with constant relative growth rate. The bacteria count was 400 after 2 hours and 25600 after 6 hours.
a) what is the relative growth rate? express your answer as a percentage
b) what was the initial size of the culture?
c) find an expression for the number of bacteria after t hours.

Lets watch the whole video to learn how to solve these three problems. The formula we use to solve these problems is
y(t) = y0 e^kt
