1.	16. In a laboratory, the count of bacteria in acertain experiment was increasing at therate of 290 per hour. Find the bacteria atthe end of 2 hours if the count wasinitially 5,00,000.
Answer» Initially=5,00,000Rate=2%per hourNumber at the end of 2 hoursUsing Compound interest, Amount=5,00,000(1+2/(1001))²=5,00,000(102/100)²=102²5*10=520200

Initially=5,00,000Rate=2%per hourNumber at the end of 2 hoursUsing Compound interest,

Amount=5,00,000(1+2/(100*1))²=5,00,000(102/100)²=102²*5*10=520200
