AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the population of Lactobacillus acidophilus relative to the initial value at different time intervals, we can use the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Generation Time**: The generation time of Lactobacillus acidophilus is given as 75 minutes. This means that every 75 minutes, the population of the bacteria doubles. 2. **Define the Formula**: The formula to calculate the population at any time \( t \) relative to the initial population \( P_0 \) is given by: \[ ...
