A strain of E.coli Beu 397-recA441 is placed into a nutrient broth at 30 Celsius and allowed to grow. The data shown in the table are collected. The population is measured in grams and the time in hours. Since population P depends on time t and each input corresponds to exactly one output, we can say that population is a function of time; so P(t) represents the population at time t.
