S = p/(q + p(1 − q)) solve for q

saveliy_v [14]

S = p/(q +p -pq)
q +p -pq = p/s
q -pq = p/s - p
q(1-p) = p/s - p
q = (p/s - p) / (1-p)

A culture started with 2000 bacteria. After 4 hours, it grew to 2,200 bacteria. Predict how many bacteria will represent after 9

S_A_V [24]

Y=2000* $e^{k*t}$

2200=2000* $e^{k*4}$

$e^{k}= ( \frac{22}{20} )^{(1/4)}$ 

so,
y at t=8 is 2000*( $( \frac{22}{20} )^{(1/4)}$ )^8
y = 2000(22/20)^2=2000*1.21=2420 thats the answer i hope.

Harry reads equal numbers of pages of a book every week. The graph shows the number of pages of the book left to read, y, after

horsena [70]

Answer:

$y=-55x+275$

Explanation:

The given points are:

(0, 275)
(1, 220)
(2, 165)
(3, 110)
(4,55)
(5, 0)

Since a straight line joins all the points, the equation that models the relationship is linear and you can find the slope-intercept equation which has the general form:

$y=mx+b$

Where:

$m$ is the slope

$b$ is the y-intercept

1. Find the slope

You can use any two ordered pairs.

m = rise/run = Δy/Δx = [220 - 275] /[1 - 0] = - 55

2. Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0; thus it is 275.

b = 275

3. Substitute in the slope-intercept equation

$y=-55x+275$

That is the last option.
