At 3:00 PM, you inoculate 1 x 103 cells in a closed flask on nutrient broth. The cells have a lag phase that lasts an hour. At 8:00 PM, the culture enters stationary phase. At that time, there are 6.5 x 107 cells in the flask. Calculate the number of generations (n), the number of generations/hour (k) and the doubling time or number of hours/generation (g). Can anyone please help me with the following question. I don't want the answer...
