Answer:
If k = −1 then the system has no solutions.
If k = 2 then the system has infinitely many solutions.
The system cannot have unique solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following system of equations

The augmented matrix is
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-2&3&2\\1&1&1&k\\2&-1&4&k^2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C1%261%261%26k%5C%5C2%26-1%264%26k%5E2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The reduction of this matrix to row-echelon form is outlined below.

![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&k-2\\2&-1&4&k^2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26k-2%5C%5C2%26-1%264%26k%5E2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&k-2\\0&3&-2&k^2-4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26k-2%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26k%5E2-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&k-2\\0&0&0&k^2-k-2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26k-2%5C%5C0%260%260%26k%5E2-k-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The last row determines, if there are solutions or not. To be consistent, we must have k such that


Case k = −1:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&-1-2\\0&0&0&(-1)^2-(-1)-2\end{array}\right] \rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&-3\\0&0&0&-2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26-1-2%5C%5C0%260%260%26%28-1%29%5E2-%28-1%29-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Crightarrow%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%26-3%5C%5C0%260%260%26-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
If k = −1 then the last equation becomes 0 = −2 which is impossible.Therefore, the system has no solutions.
Case k = 2:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&2-2\\0&0&0&(2)^2-(2)-2\end{array}\right] \rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&-2&3&2\\0&3&-2&0\\0&0&0&0\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%262-2%5C%5C0%260%260%26%282%29%5E2-%282%29-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Crightarrow%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%26-2%263%262%5C%5C0%263%26-2%260%5C%5C0%260%260%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
This gives the infinite many solution.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Exponential Growth
</u>
The natural growth of some magnitudes can be modeled by the equation:

Where P is the actual amount of the magnitude, Po is its initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time.
The initial number of bacteria is Po=40 and it doubles (P=2Po) at t=20 min. With that point we can find the value of r:

Simplifying:

Solving for 1+r:
![1+r=\sqrt[20]{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%2Br%3D%5Csqrt%5B20%5D%7B2%7D)

The exponential function that models the situation is:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic formula:
when the equation is 
The given equation is
. Let's first arrange this so its format looks like
:


Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

Now, we can easily identify 3 as a, -2 as b and 0 as c. Plug these into the quadratic formula:

Given:
μ = 2 min, population mean
σ = 0.5 min, population standard deviation
We want to find P(x>3).
Calculate the z-score
z= (x-μ)/σ = (3-2)/0.5 = 2
From standard tables, obtain
P(x ≤ 3) = P(z ≤ 2) = 0.9772
Therefore
P(x > 3) = P(z > 2) = 1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228
Answer: 0.02275
