Solve the problem. Leave the answer in exponential notation.
-The expression $2 ^ { 6 } \cdot 64 ^ { t }$ approximates the number of bacteria after t hours. What is the initial number of bacteria, that is, the number when $t = 0$ ?
A) $2 ^ { 12 }$
B) $2 ^ { 36 }$
C) 0
D) $2 ^ { 6 }$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The initial number of bacteria is found by setting $t = 0$. The expression becomes $2^6 \cdot 64^0 = 2^6 \cdot 1 = 2^6$, since any number to the power of 0 is 1.
