When a patient with hypertension takes a particular type of blood pressure medication, the effects on the systolic pressure, S(f), can be measured by the following piecewise defined function: S(t) - hours, since taking the medication. Based on the graph of the piecewise function, if the patient takes the blood pressure medication at 9 a.m., in which interval will their systolic pressure be lowest? O 11 am to 12 p.m. 01 p.m. to 2 p.m. O4 p.m. to 5 p.m. 07 p.m. to 8 p.m. [140-5t If 0sts5 115 if 5

Suppose the number of bacteria in a culture is modeled by the function P(t) = 1750e0.1t, where t is measured in hours. Determine the time it will take for the number of bacteria to reach 2914. Round answer to 1 dec. place. t = hours
