- Decrease in Bacteria When an antibiotic is introduced into a culture of 50,000 bacteria, the number of bacteria decreases exponentially. After 9 hours, there are only 20,000 bacteria. Write an exponential equation to express the growth function y in terms of time t in hours. In how many hours will half the number of bacteria remain?arrow_forwardThe function f(x)=5x is an exponential function with base______; f(2) =_______, f(0) =______, f(2) =_______, and f(6) =_______.arrow_forwardTracer Dye The amount of a tracer dye injected into the blood stream decrease exponentially, with a decay constant of 3 per minute. If 6 cc are present initially, how many cubic centimeters are present after 10 minutes? Here k will be negative.arrow_forward
