The growth rate at t=0 hours is bacteria per hour
Transcribed Image Text:The growth rate at t=0 hours is bacteria per hour
When a bactericide is added to a nutrient broth in which bacteria are growing, the bacterium population continues to grow for a while, but then stops growing and begins to decline. The size of the population at time t (hours) is b = 126 +124t-12312. Find the growth rates at t=0 hours, t=6 hours, and t= 12 hours.
