Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a common inhabitant of human intestines is the bacterium Escherichia coli.

A cell of this bacterium in a nutrient-broth medium divides into two cells every 20 minutes.

Initial population = 71 cells

Doubles in 1/3 of an hour

P = P_o (2)^{t/3}, where t is the no of hours.

P = 71 (2)^{t/3}

Rate of growth = derivative of P

= 71(2)^{t/3} *(1/3)ln 2\\= \frac{71}{3} (2)^{t/3} ln 2

Solve -7x^2+x+9=-6x quadratic formula
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

-7x^2+x+9=-6x

-7x^2+x+9+6x=-6x+6x

-7x^2+7x+9=0

quadratic\: formula

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{7^2-4\left(-7\right)\cdot \:9}}{2\left(-7\right)}

\sqrt{-7^{2} -4(-7)\times9} =\sqrt{301}

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}

\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}

=\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{-2\cdot \:7}

=\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{-14}

\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}

=\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{-2\cdot \:7}

=\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{-14}

answer=\frac{7+\sqrt{301}}{14}
