If my simplification is valid the answer is:

1.4 % growth each minute

I don’t feel like the representation
P = 120(1.82) is important in this certain problem.

So P the predicted number of bacteria is not practical with this problem.

Use the 82% per hour and divide it by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour.

When doing this you find the rate in which bacteria grows which is about 1.4%.

The prediction is about 1.82 percent for 120 something it’s not clarified, but I’m guessing that’s minutes.

So you can prove that the prediction is over the rate in which bacteria grows per minute.

Find a function rule for the line that passes through the origin (0,0) and the point (5, - 13)
inessss [21]

Answer:

The Function rule for line is: \mathbf{y=-\frac{13}{5}x}

Option A is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find a function rule for the line that passes through the origin (0,0) and the point (5, - 13)

The function rule is of form: \mathbf{y=mx+b}

where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Finding slope:

The formula used to find slope is: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have x_1=0, y_1=0, x_2=5, y_2=-13

Putting values and finding slope

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-13-0}{5-0}\\Slope=\frac{-13}{5}\\Slope=-\frac{13}{5}

Finding y-intercept

We will use point(0,0) to find y-intercept

y=mx+b\\0=-\frac{13}{5}(0)+b\\0=0+b\\b=0

So, y-intercept is 0

The Function rule for line having slope m=-13/5 and y-intercept b=0:

y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{13}{5}x+0\\y=-\frac{13}{5}x

So, The Function rule for line is: \mathbf{y=-\frac{13}{5}x}

Option A is correct option.

The variables A, B, and C represent polynomials where A = x2, B = 3x + 2, and C = x – 3. What is AB – C2 in simplest form?
Vladimir [108]
AB = X^2(3X +2) 

C^2 =  (x - 3)^2

AB - C^2   = 3x^3 + 2x^2 - (x^2 - 6x + 9)

 =   3x^3 + x^2 + 6x - 9
