A culture of bacteria has an initial population of 330 bacteria and doubles every 8 hours. Using the formula Pt = Po 2à, where P is the population after t hours, Po is the initial population, t is the time in hours and d is the doubling time, what is the population of bacteria in the culture after 17 hours, to the nearest whole number?
