9. Data for cell concentration (x) versus time (t) are plotted on a semilog paper. Points (t1 = 0.5h, x1=3.5 g/l) and (t2 = 15h, x2 = 10.6 g/l) fall on a straight line passing through the data. (a) Determine the equation relating x and t. (15 marks) (b) What is the value of the specific growth rate for the culture? (5 marks)
