An amoeba divides to form two amoebas after one hour . One hour later each of the two amoebas divides to form two more. Every hour each amoeba divides to form two more

Respuesta :

[tex]P=P_0(r)^t[/tex]   where

  • P is the population
  • P₀ is the initial population
  • r is the rate
  • t is the time

In the given problem, r = 2 (because the amoeba double every hour). So,

               [tex]P=P_0(2)^t[/tex]
