The initial population of the bacteria was 500.
A researcher is modeling the population of a certain species of bacteria in a petri dish. The population P can be modeled by the function P(t) = 500(1.04)^t, where t is the number of hours since the start of the observation. Which of the following is the best interpretation of the number 500 in this context?
