An antibiotic kills 60% of bacteria in a sample of 100,000 each day. The equation P2 - 100,000(0.4) represents the
population, Pı, after d days. Four days after introducing the antibiotic to the first sample, a scientist introduces the same
antibiotic to a second population, P2. The number of bacteria after d days in the second population is represented by the
equation P2 = 100,000(04) 0-4. Which equation is equivalent to pz?

The expression P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is an illustration of an exponential expression

The equivalent expression of P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is  P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d

How to determine the equivalent equation?

The equation is given as:

P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4)

Apply the law on indices on the expression.

P2 = 100000(0.4)^d * 1/0.4^4

Rewrite as:

P2 = 1/0.4^4 * 100000(0.4)^d

Evaluate the exponent

P2 = 39.0625 * 100000(0.4)^d

Evaluate the product

P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d

Hence, the equivalent expression of P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is  P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d
