A culture started with 3000 bacteria. After 2 hours it grew to 3300 bacteria. Predict how many bacteria will be present after 16

bixtya [17]

Answer:

$6,430\ bacteria$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a exponential function of the form

$y=a(1+r)^{x}$

where

y is the population of bacteria

a is the initial value

r is the rate of growth

x is the number of hours

we have

a=3,000 bacteria

$y=3,000(1+r)^{x}$

For x=2, y=3,300

substitute

$3,300=3,000(1+r)^{2}$

$(3,300/3,000)=(1+r)^{2}$

Apply square root both sides

$1+r=\sqrt{3.3/3}$

$r=\sqrt{3.3/3}-1$

$r=0.0488$

$r=4.88\%$

substitute in the equation

$y=3,000(1+0.0488)^{x}$

$y=3,000(1.0488)^{x}$

<u><em>Predict how many bacteria will be present after 16 hours</em></u>

For x=16 hours

substitute

$y=3,000(1.0488)^{16}$

$y=6,430\ bacteria$

Why do the probability of an event and the probability of its complement add up to 1

Ad libitum [116K]

<span>the probability of an event and the probability of its complement add up to 1 because the total events are the even it self and its compliment, so its probability equal to 1 because these are all the possible events that will occur. for example a coin toss, an event head will happen 0.5, and its complement is tails which will also happens 0.5</span>

Reasoning Graph the set of ordered pairs (0, 2). (1.4), (2,6). (3.8). Determine whether the relationship is a linear function Ex

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

No, it does not. See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets find out the linear equation that passes trough (-2, 0) and (0, -6).

We know every linear equation has the form: y = mx + b

Where m is the slope on the curve and b the independent term.

We know that, given 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) we can find the slope m as:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

In our case lets replace (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) by (-2, 0) and (0, -6) (notice it could be done in the inverse sense where (-2, 0) is (x2,y2) and (0, -6) is (x1,y1) ). So, our slope is:

m = [-6 - 0] / [0 - (-2)]

m = -6/2 = -3

So, we have a downward linear function with slope -3, this is:

y = -3x + b

Now, for finding b just replace any of the 2 points given in the equation. Lets replace (-2, 0):

0 = -3(-2) + b

0 = 6 + b

Subtracting 6 in both sides:

-6 = b

So, our independent term is -6 and the function is:

y = -3x - 6

Now lets see if this linear eqution passes trough (2,6). If it does, we can replace the values on the equation. Replacing x by 2:

y = -3(2) - 6 = = -6 - 6 = - 12

So, in our equation, we x is 2 y is -12, and not 6 as in the point (2,6). So, our equation does not passes trough (2,6)

Suppose a consumer product researcher wanted to find out whether a highlighter lasted less than the manufacturer's claim that th

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is $H_0: \mu = 14$

The alternate hypothesis is $H_a: \mu < 14$

The test statistic is t = -1.95.

The p-value is of 0.0292. This means that for a level of significance of 0.0292 and higher, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the highlighters wrote for less than 14 continuous hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a consumer product researcher wanted to find out whether a highlighter lasted less than the manufacturer's claim that their highlighters could write continuously for 14 hours.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is 14 hours, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 14$

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean is less than 14 hours, that is:

$H_a: \mu < 14$

The test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

14 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 14$

X = 13.6 hours, s = 1.3 hours. Sample of 40:

In addition to the values of X and s given, we have that $n = 40$

Test statistic:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{13.6 - 14}{\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{40}}}$

$t = -1.95$

The test statistic is t = -1.95.

P-value:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean lower than 13.6, which is a left tailed test, with t = -1.95 and 40 - 1 = 39 degrees of freedom.

Using a calculator, the p-value is of 0.0292. This means that for a level of significance of 0.0292 and higher, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the highlighters wrote for less than 14 continuous hours.
