..Given:

\begin{gathered} a=38762 \\ r=5.3\%=\frac{5.3}{100}=0.053 \\ t=20 \end{gathered}

To Determine: The number of bacteria after 20 hours

Using the future value formula for growth rate

\begin{gathered} P_a=P_c(1+r)^t \\ P_a=(Bacteria,final,population) \\ P_c(Bacteria,current,population)=38762 \\ r(rate)=0.053,t(time,in,hour)=20 \end{gathered}

Therefore

\begin{gathered} P_a=38762(1+0.053)^{20} \\ P_a=38762(1.053)^{20} \\ P_a=38762(2.809101) \\ P_a=108886.39 \\ P_a\approx108886 \end{gathered}

Hence, population of bacteria in 20 hours is 108,886

Use the expression 5(6 + 4x) to answer the following: Part A: Describe the two factors in this expression. (4 points) Part B: Ho
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

A. 2 factors: 5 and (6+4x)

B. 5: 1 term  

(6+4x): 2 terms

C: The coefficient is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors are the parts of expression separate by multiplications, so there are 2 factors: 5 and (6+4x)

The terms of each factor are the terms separate by the sign + or -. So the term of the factor 5 is 1 and the terms of the factor (6+4x) are 6 and 4x

The coefficient of the variable term is the number that is beside the variable. The coefficient of x is 4.

the volume of a cylinder is 1,356.48^ feet. If the diameter is 12 feet, calculate the height of the cylinder.
Olin [163]

Answer:

11.99 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cyl. of radius r and height h is V = πr²h.

Solving this immediately for h yields:

         V

h = ----------

         πr²

Inserting the known quantities results in:

         V           1356.48 ft³

h = ---------- = ----------------------      Note that r = (1/2)d, so r = (1/2)(12 ft) = 6 ft

         πr²         3.14159 (6 ft)²

   =   11.994 ft

The height of the cyl. is 11.99 ft (to the nearest hundredth foot)

A bag contains yellow marbles in red marbles 65 in total. The number of yellow marbles is five more than four times the number o
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: there would be 52 yellow marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we know that there is 65 marbles in total? Right? So then we’d take 65 and think, what could we divide this by and start guessing and estimating numbers. (I guessed 5, one because it’s divisible by 65, two there is 5 times more yellow marbles than red marbles.) So 5 divided by 65 is 13. But, in order to find the amount of yellow marbles, we need to subtract the whole number by the amount of red marbles. (So 65-13 =?) if you subtract that you get 52 yellow marbles.  :)
