At any time t> 0, in days, the rate of growth of a bacteria population is given by
dy
 ky ,
dx
where k is a constant, and y is the number of bacteria present. The initial population is
1,000 and the population triples after five days.
(a)
Write an expression for y at any time t > 0
(b)
By what factor will the population have increased in the first 10 days?
(c)
At what time t, in days, will the population have increased by a factor of 6?
14.
The decay equation for radon-222 gas is known to be y  y0 e 0.18t , with t in days. About
how long will it take the radon in a sealed sample of air to lose 10% of its original value?
15.
The concentration of bacteria in a culture increases at a rate proportional to the number
present. In other words, the rate of growth of a bacteria population is given by
dy
 ky ,
dt
where y is the number of bacteria present and k is a constant of proportionality. If the
constant of proportionality is 11% per hour, in how many hours will the concentration
triple?
