The growth of a certain bacteria population can be modeled by the function A(t) = 850e0.0649t where A(t) is the number of bacteria and t represents the time in minutes. a. What is the initial number of bacteria? (round to the nearest whole number of bacteria.) b. What is the number of bacteria after 5 minutes? (round to the nearest whole number of bacteria.) c. How long will it take for the number of bacteria to double? (your answer must be accurate to at least 3 decimal places.)
