.A bacteria culture grows at a rate of 20%

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zolol [24]2 years ago
5 0

The number of the specimens would be in the culture after 5 minutes will be 7,962.62.

<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>

Consider the function:

y = a (1 + r) ˣ

Where x is the number of times this growth occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth occurs.

A bacteria culture grows at a rate of 20% per minute.

If the culture initially has 3,200 bacteria specimens.

Then the equation will be

y = 3200 (1 + 0.2) ˣ

y = 3200 (1.20) ˣ

Then the number of the specimens would be in the culture after 5 minutes will be

y = 3200 (1.20)⁵

y = 7962.62

More about the exponent link is given below.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

652.6-2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=563.997    

652.6+2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=741.203    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (563.997;741.203)    

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=652.6 represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=311.7 represent the sample standard deviation

n=50 represent the sample size  

Soltuion to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=50-1=49

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,49)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=2.01

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

652.6-2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=563.997    

652.6+2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=741.203    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (563.997;741.203)

-4(x+1)+5=17 solve for x
ahrayia [7]

-4(x + 1) + 5 = 17

Distribute -4 inside the parentheses.

(-4x - 4) + 5 = 17

Combine like terms (-4 + 5).

-4x + 1 = 17

Subtract 1 from both sides.

-4x = 16

Divide both sides by -4.

x = -4

Which shows the best use of the associative and commutative properties to
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

So the associative and commutative properties basically say That you can change the orders of the numbers and the answer won't change (for multiplication and addition).

Your answer would be D because they added the numbers with a decimal place together, it makes it easier to look at, and add in your head.

identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to y=3x+5 that passes through (4,-1)
Alborosie

Answer:

y-4 = (-1/3)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify the equation in point slope form.

The standard equation of point slope form is:

(y-y₁) = m (x-x₁)

where m is the slope and x₁ and y₁ are the points

We are given point(4,-1) so,

x₁=4 and y₁=-1

And a perpendicular line: y =3x+5

Which is equal to y = mx+b

where m is slope so, slope m = 3

Since the line is perpendicular, so the slope in negative inverse of actual slope that m = -1/m

i.e, m = -1/3

So, the equation in point slope form is:

y-(-1) = (-1/3)(x-4)

=> y+1 = (-1/3)(x-4)
