The exponential function is often used to model the growth or decay of a population

The population size of the yeast cell after 3 hours is 6.24 million

The given parameters are:

a = 3.1M --- initial number of cells

r = 0.4425 per hour --- rate

The nth term of an exponential function is:

f(n) = a(1+r)^n-1

After 3 hours; n = 3

So, we have:

f(3) = a(1+r)^3-1

Substitute values for a and r

f(3) = 3.1 (1+0.4425)^3-1

f(3) = 3.1 ( 1.4425)^2

f(3) = 6.24

Hence, the population size of the yeast cell after 3 hours is 6.24 million.

Paul is decorating cupcakes. He can decorate 3/4 of a cupcake per minute. At this rate, how many cupcakes can he decorate in 12
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

3/4 x 12/1 because if you can decorate 3/4 a cupcake per minute, you multiply 3/4 by 12 to find the total amount of cupcakes he could decorate. 3/4 x 12/1 = 9 Paul can decorate 9 cupcakes in 12 minutes.
