Answer:
The bacteria will grow from 1 to 1024 in 10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
P_0 = 1
P = 1024
We have to find time
Putting values in the formula
[tex]P = P_0(2)^t\\1024=(1)(2)^t[/tex]
Anything multiplied with 1 remains the same
[tex]1024=2^t\\2^{10} = 2^t[/tex]
Using the property "when bases are same, the exponents can be put equivalent"
t = 10 hours
Therefore, the bacteria will grow from 1 to 1024 in 10 hours ..
