The population of a bacteria colony doubles every 6 hours. For example, starting with a sample of 10 bacteria, after 6 hours there would be 20 bacteria and so on. After 12 hours there would be 40, and so on. Now consider a scientist who has collected a colony of 25 bacteria. Create an expression and approximate the number of bacteria after 3 hours.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

If the bacteria grow for six hours, each bacterium will divide 3 times per hour × 6 hours = 18 times.

Every time the bacteria reproduce, the number doubles.

calculate the area of the following.

Answers

Answer:

580.4 cm^2 to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a perpendicular line from the top right vertex to the base we split the figure into 2 triangles and a rectangle in the center.

Left side triangle:

base = √(28^2 - 20^2)    (using Pythagoras theorem

= 19.600

So its area = 1/2 * 19.6 * 20 = 196 cm^2.

Right side triangle:

Base = √(30^2 - 20^2) = 22.361

Area = 1/2 * 22.361 * 20 = 223.61 cm^2

Rectangle:

Base of rectangle = 50 - 19.6 - 22.361 = 8.039.

Area = 8.039 * 20 = 160.78.

So the area of the whole figure

= 196 + 223.61 + 160.78

= 580.39 cm^2.

Two times a number added to the other number is 25. Three times the first numb
minus the other number is 20. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

First number = 9

Second number = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first number and y be the second.

2x + y = 25

3x - y = 20

1) Add them together.

5x = 45

x = 9

2) Solve for y.

2(9) + y = 25

y=7

3) Check your work on the other equation.

3(9) - (7) = 20

27 - 7 = 20

20 = 20

Therefore the first number is 9 and the second number is 7.

Exponential growth/decay problem 1

Answer:

b) $500

c) 6% = 0.06

d) [tex]f(x)=500(1.06)^x[/tex]

e) $595.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a)

Exponential GROWTH, since interest is applied to the account each year.

Part (b)

Initial amount = $500

Part (c)

Growth factor = 6% = 0.06 (in decimal form)

Part (d)

General form of exponential growth function:

[tex]f(x)=a(1+r)^x[/tex]

where:

a = initial amountr = rate of growth (in decimal form)x = time (in years)

Given:

a = 500r = 0.06

[tex]\implies f(x)=500(1+0.06)^x[/tex]

[tex]\implies f(x)=500(1.06)^x[/tex]

Part (e)

when x = 3

-1 |2/3-4| divided by 5/6

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex](-1 (\frac{2}{3} - 4)) / (5/6)[/tex]

Let's solve for the numerator first:

PEMDAS says parenthesis first so...

2/3 - 4, we'll turn 4 into an improper fraction so it's easier

2/3 - 12/3 = -10/3

-1(-10/3) = (+)10/3

Now, we replace this as the numerator:

(10/3) / (5/6)

To divide, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second:

(10/3) * (6/5) = 60/15

now simplify.....

60/15 = 4 or in other words, {15 * 4 = 60}

So, the answer is 4!

does her brother owe her?
$15.00
O $41.00
$60.00
$61.00

Answers

Answer:

$15.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Just did the quiz

By evaluating the piecewise function, we will see that the brother owes $15.

How much does her brother owe her?

The piecewise function is:

y = 26,   if 0 < h < 4

y = 26 + 5*(h - 4),  if 4 < h < 8

y = 60, if 8 < h

Barbara uses it for 3 hours, so we only need to use the first part for her, so she needs to pay $26.

Then the brother uses it for 4 hours (and we need to add the 3 hours that Barbara used it, so we have h = 7).

Then for the 7 hours the two brothers need to pay:

y = $26 + $5*(7 - 4) = $41

If we subtract the part that Barbara needs to pay we get.

$41 - $26 = $15

This means that the correct option is $15.

g True or false: For continuous random variables, the probability of being less than some value, x, IS NOT the same as the probability of being less than or equal to the same value, x. Group of answer choices True False

Answers

Answer:  False

===========================================================

Explanation:

The given statement is claiming something like [tex]P(X < 2)[/tex] produces a different result compared to [tex]P(X \le 2)[/tex]. The subtle difference of course is the "or equal to".

When talking about continuous random variables, the two values are the same. Why? Because probability of selecting *exactly* X = 2 is going to be zero. Think of a very very thin strip of height P(X = 2) and the width is approaching zero. The width is doing this because we're trying to pinpoint X = 2 itself. As you can see, this skinny rectangle will have its area approach 0. Ultimately, whether we compute [tex]P(X < 2)[/tex] or [tex]P(X \le 2)[/tex], it doesn't matter. They both produce the same result.

If you are a visual learner, consider the standard normal distribution. Now consider the task if shading to the left of z = 2. This area describes both probabiltiies mentioned above.

If X is a continuous random variable, then [tex]P(X < 2) = P(X \le 2)[/tex] and we can change the "2" to any number we want to have the same outcome.

Therefore, the original claim is false.

-------------------------

Extra info:

Now if X was discrete (say from the binomial distribution), then the two probabilities would be different. This is because

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(0) + P(1)\\\\P(X \le 2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2)\\\\P(X < 2) \ne P(X \le 2) \ \text{only if X is discrete}[/tex]

We can see in this case that the second line has P(2) while the first one does not.

So the original claim would be true if we changed "continuous" to "discrete".

Given the value of a₁ is 10, while the value of a₅ is 810, therefore, the common ratio can be written as,

[tex]\dfrac{a_5}{a_4} \times \dfrac{a_4}{a_3} \times \dfrac{a_3}{a_2}\times \dfrac{a_2}{a_1} = r \times r \times r \times r\\\\\\\dfrac{a_5}{a_1} = r^4\\\\\\dfrac{810}{10} = r^4\\\\\sqrt[4]{81} = r\\\\r = 3[/tex]

Hence, the common ratio of the geometric sequence is 3.

Write the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a line on a coordinate grid, with 2 marked points, (-1, 2) and (1, -4)

We can use these points to help find the equation of the line, which we can write in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First, we need to find the slope of the line
The formula for the slope calculated from 2 points is [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points

We have everything we need to find the slope, but let's label the values of the points to help avoid confusion.

[tex]x_1=-1\\y_1=2\\x_2=1\\y_2=-4[/tex]

Now substitute these values into the formula to find the slope

m=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{-4-2}{1--1}[/tex]

Simplify

m=[tex]\frac{-4-2}{1+1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{-6}{2}[/tex]

Divide

m= -3

The slope of the line is -3

We can substitute this into the formula.
Here's our line so far:

y = -3x + b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through the points (-1, 2) and (1, -4), we can use either one to find the value of b

Taking (-1, 2) for example:

Substitute -1 as x and 2 as y.

2 = -3(-1) + b

multiply

2 = 3 + b

Subtract 3 from both sides

-1 = b

Substitute -1 as b.

y = -3x - 1

Hope this helps!
