A population of a particular yeast cell develops with a constant relative growth rate of 0.4425 per hour. The initial population

consists of 3.1 million cells. Find the population size (in millions of cells) after 3 hours. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

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.

What is the value of X?​
algol [13]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is 45 45 90 right triangle

The ratio of leg: hypo = a : a√2

Given: hypo  AC = 6√2; so AB = BC = 6

ΔBCD is 30 60 90 right triangle

The ratio of short leg : long leg  : hypo = x : x√3 : 2x

Hypo.  BC = 6 = 2 (3)

So short leg BD = x = 3

Each of 5 boys randomly chooses a watch from 12 different styles. What is the probability that at least 2 boys choose the same t
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Ok. So we have 12 different styles of watches to choose from, so that means that the total number of combinations of styles for 5 boys is 12*12*12*12*12, since each boy has his pick of 12 options.

The way to answer this question is by way of the complementary rule: We want the number of ways that the boys can all have different styles. So the first boy to pick has 12 options available to him, the second boy has 11 options available to him, the 3rd boy has 10 options available to him, so on and so forth.

So the probability that the boys all have different watches is (12*11*10*9*8)/12^5= .3819.

To find the probability that at least two boys have the same style would just be 1 -.3819 = 6181
