Vlad [161]

Answer:

<em>Peter now has 54 baseball cards</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

Assume Peter had x baseball cards in his collection. The 35% of his initial collection is

35 * x / 100= 0.35x

We know that those 14 new baseball cards represent a 35% of his previous collection, therefore we can set a simple equation

0.35x=14

When we solve for x, we'll know how many baseball cards Peter had before

x=14 / 0.35 = 40

Peter had 40 cards, he added 14 new baseball cards, so he now has 40+14=54

Peter now has 54 baseball cards

The mass of a bacteria culture doubles every four days. If the initial sample is 5mg: a) how much will you have after one week (
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a) 16.82 mg

b) 24 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for exponential growth is given as:

A=A_0b^{\frac{t}{c}}

Where A is the final population

A_0 is the initial population

b is the growth factor

c is the time taken for the growth 'b'

t is the amount of time

Here, We are given the following:

A_0 = 5 mg

b = 2 (Given because it doubles)

c = 4 days

a) A = ?

Using the formula:

A=5 \times 2^{\frac{7}{4}}\\\Rightarrow A=5 \times 2^{1.75} \\\Rightarrow A = \bold{16.82\ mg}

b) Given

A = 320 mg

t = ?

Using the above formula again:

320 = 5 \times 2^{\frac{t}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{320} 5= 2^{\frac{t}{4}}\\\Rightarrow 2^{\frac{t}{4}} = 64\\\Rightarrow 2^{\frac{t}{4}} = 2^6\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{t}{4} = 6\\\Rightarrow t = 6 \times 4\\\Rightarrow \bold{t = 24\ days}

So, the answers are:

a) 16.82 mg

b) 24 days
