We have been given that a particular type of cell increases by 75% in number every hour. We are asked to find the number of cells present at the end of 12 hours if there are initially 4 of these cells.

We will use exponential growth formula to solve our given problem.

y=a\cdot (1+r)^x, where,

y = Final amount,

a = Initial amount,

r = Growth rate in decimal form,

x = Time.

75\%=\frac{75}{100}=0.75

Upon substituting initial value a=4 and x=12 in above formula, we will get:

y=4\cdot (1+0.75)^{12}

y=4\cdot (1.75)^{12}

y=4\cdot 825.0050068497657776

y=3300.020027

y\approx 3300

Therefore, there will be approximately 3300 cells at the end of 12 hours.

Classify each polynomial by degree and number of terms. 1. Quartic monomial v 5x? - 7x + 9 2. Cubic binomial 2x3 + 3 < 3. Qua
ElenaW [278]

The degree of a polynomial is categorized by its highest power of its leading variable.

<h3>Degree and number of terms of a polynomial</h3>

Given the following polynomial functions, we are to classify them based on their degrees and the number of terms

For the polynomial function 5x^4 - 7x + 9

The degree is 4 being quartic and there are three terms in the expression

For the polynomial  2x3 + 3 < 3, the degree is 3 (cubic) with three terms in the expression.

For a Quintic quadnomial​, the degree of the polynomial is 5.

A 15 pound bag of ice costs $ 1.80. Give the unit rate.
Vaselesa [24]
We can use a rule of three simple, direct proportion to solve this problem.
15 pounds correspond to $1.80, then the question is to find the price of one pound, the called unit rate. We state the rule of three:
15 pound ---->  $1.80
 1 pound -----> x
x = (1)(1.80)/15
x = 0.12
Therefore, each pound costs $0.12 that is the unit rate in pounds
