A bacteria culture starts with 12,000 bacteria and the number doubles every 50 minutes.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

a) $y=12000(2)^{\frac{t}{50}}$

b) Approx. 27,569 bacteria

c) About 103 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

This will follow exponential modelling with form of equation shown below:

$y=Ab^{\frac{t}{n}}$

Where

A is the initial amount (here, 12000)

b is the growth factor (double, so growth factor is "2")

n is the number of minutes in which it doubles, so n = 50

Substituting, we get our formula:

$y=Ab^{\frac{t}{n}}\\y=12000(2)^{\frac{t}{50}}$

To get number of bacteria after 1 hour, we have to plug in the time into "t" of the formula we wrote earlier.

Remember, t is in minutes, so

1 hour = 60 minutes

t = 60

Substituting, we get:

$y=12000(2)^{\frac{t}{50}}\\y=12000(2)^{\frac{60}{50}}\\y=12000(2)^{\frac{6}{5}}\\y=27,568.76$

The number of bacteria after 1 hour would approximate be 27,569 bacteria

To get TIME to go to 50,000 bacteria, we will substitute 50,000 into "y" of the equation and solve the equation using natural logarithms to get t. Shown below:

$y=12000(2)^{\frac{t}{50}}\\50,000=12,000(2)^{\frac{t}{50}}\\4.17=2^{\frac{t}{50}}\\Ln(4.17)=Ln(2^{\frac{t}{50}})\\Ln(4.17)=\frac{t}{50}*Ln(2)\\\frac{t}{50}=\frac{Ln(4.17)}{Ln(2)}\\\frac{t}{50}=2.06\\t=103$

After about 103 minutes, there will be 50,000 bacteria

A birthday cake is shaped like a square. The area of the square is 64

anastassius [24]

Answer:

8 square inches. You find area by length x height. A square's sides are all of equal length. So what number x itself is 64? The answer is 8 because 8 x 8 equals 64.

Which statement best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have

laila [671]

Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/7 ^2

This is the statement that best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have their birthdays on a Monday.

There are 7 days in a week, so there are 7 choices but only 1 Monday. So, 1/7 is the probability that a person's birthday falls on a Monday.

1st person asked will have 1/7 probability.
2nd person asked will also have 1/7 probability

So, (1/7)² is the probability that both persons will have their birthdays on a Monday.

HELP!!!!!BRAINLIEST PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK ON A PAPER BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: Noah's mixture would be more flavorful and fizzy because his ratio of water and fizz powder aren't to off (not a large ratio gap). Andre's orange fizz would be a little more watered down making it less fizzy and less flavorful because 8 cups were added instead of 6 or 7 cups of water. Also Noah would have less drink made them Andre because he only used 6 cups of water.
