The count in a bacteria culture was 200 after 20 minutes and 1900 after 40 minutes. Assuming the count grows exponentially, What was the initial size of the culture? (Round to the nearest whole number) Find the doubling period. Find the population after 60 minutes. (Round to the nearest whole number) When will the population reach 11000.
