The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>

The formula for exponential growth is;

P = P₀e^(rt)

where;

P = current population at time t

P₀ = starting population

r = rate of exponential growth/decay

t = time after start

Thus, from our question we have;

4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)

4500/1500 = e^r

e^r = 3

In 3 = r

r = 1.0986

Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;

P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

For the culture to double, then;

P/P₀ = 2. Thus;

e^(1.0986t) = 2

In 2 = 1.0986t

t = 0.6931/1.0986

t = 0.631 hours

Does anyone know what 3x+y=15 5x3y=11 is? It has to be answered in desmos.
faust18 [17]

3x + y = 15

5x3y = 11

This is an example of a system of equations.

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be graphed, as the solution that satisfies both equations will be the point where the lines intersect on a graph.

Desmos is a graphing calculator, and thus it allows you to visualize this system.

The graph of the piecewise function f(x) is shown what is the domain of f(x)
Rom4ik [11]

The domain of a function is where we have a value for x.

Since that's the case the domain of f(x) = {x e R / 1 ≤ x < 5}

We see that we have a value for x = 1 cuz we have a filled circle, but we don't have a value for x = 5, look at the unfilled circle

So, our x can vary between 1 and 5, but can't be 5.
