There are n bacteria and 1 virus in a Petri dish. Within the first minute, the virus kills one bacterium and produces another copy of itself, and all of the remaining bacteria reproduce, making 2 viruses and 2 · (n − 1) bacteria. In the second minute, each of the viruses kills a bacterium and produces a new copy of itself (resulting in 4 viruses and 2(2(n − 1) − 2) = 4n − 8 bacteria; again, the remaining bacteria reproduce. This process continues every minute. Will the viruses eventually kill all the bacteria? If so, design an algorithm that computes how many steps it will take.
