Since x -intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
B
Since the minimum value in the table for bacteria A is less than the minimum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a slower growth rate than bacteria B.
C
Since y -intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
D
Since the maximum value in the table for bacteria A is greater than the maximum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a faster growth rate than bacteria B.
