A culture of a certain bacteria doubles every hour. At 9:00 a.m, there were already 120 bacteria. Which equation represents the number of bacteria, n, at 8:00 a.m? How many bacteria were there?(1 point)

Responses

n2=120; at 8:00 a.m., there were 240 bacteria.
Start Fraction n over 2 End Fraction equals 120 ; at 8:00 a.m., there were 240 bacteria.

n2=120; at 8:00 a.m., there were 60 bacteria.
Start Fraction n over 2 End Fraction equals 120 ; at 8:00 a.m., there were 60 bacteria.

2n=120; at 8:00 a.m., there were 240 bacteria.
2 n equals 120 ; at 8:00 a.m., there were 240 bacteria.

2n=120; at 8:00 a.m., there were 60 bacteria.

Apologies for the incorrect response. The correct equation is:

n = 120/2 = 60

At 8:00 a.m., there were 60 bacteria.
