In a culture the bacteria count is 100000. The number is increased by 10% in 2 hours.In how many hours will the count reach 200000, if the rate of growth of bacteria is proportional to the number present.

The rate of increase in the number of bacteria in a certain bacteria culture is proportional to the number present. Given the number triples in 5 hrs., find how many bacteria will be present after 10 hours. Also find the time necessary for the number of bacteria to be 10 times the number of initial present. [Given log_e3=1. 0986 , e^(2. 1972)=9 ]

In a certain experiment the count of bacteria was increasing at the rate of 2.5% per hour. Initially, the count was 512000. Find the bacteria at the end of 2 hours.

An initial number of bacteria presented in a culture is 10000. This number doubles every 30 minutes. How long will it take to bacteria to reach the number 100000 ?

The bacteria in a culture grows by 10% in the first hour, decreases by 10% in the second hour and again increases by 10% in the third hour. Find the bacteria at the end of 3 hours if the count was initially 20000.

The bacteria in a culture grows by 10% in the first hour, decreases by 10% in the second hour and again increases by 10% in the third hour. If the original count of the bacteria in a sample is 10000, find the bacteria count at the end of 3 hours.

In a certain culture of bacteria, the rate of increase is proportional to the number present. If it is found that the number doubles in 4 hours, find the number of times the bacteria are increased in 12 hours.
