2. The logarithmic transformed data for the number of bacteria N on a glass dish after t days satisfies the linear relationship: In(N) = 8.5+1.7t a) What type of relationship between N and t is evident from this linear In(y) against x plot? b) Express N as a function of t (show final expression expanded fully) N(t) = c) By what growth factor does the number of bacteria increase over 1 day? d) What number of bacteria will be predicted to be present in this system after 1 week
