The bacteria E. Coli doubles in a little over 20 minutes in good
lab conditions. (For purposes of this exercise, we will assume it
takes exactly 20 minutes.)
a) Write a difference equation that models the growth of an E.
Coli colony in a large nutrient dish, with an initial population of
y0=10000 bacteria, and time measured in increments of 20
minutes. What is the solution to this equation and initial
condition?
b) How would the equation change if the...
