The number of E.coli bacteria cells in a pond of stagnant water can be represented by the function below, where A represents the

number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water and t represents the time, in years, that has elapsed.
A(t)=136(1.123)^4t

Based on the model, by approximately what percent does the number of E.coli bacteria cells increase each year?


A.

60%

B.

59%

C.

41%

D.

40%

Answer:

  • <u>Option B. 59%</u>

Explanation:

The function that represents the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water as the time t years elapses is:

  • A(t)=136(1.123)^{4t}

The base, 1.123, represents the multiplicative constant rate of change of the function, so you just must substitute 1 for t in the power part of the function:

  • rate=(1.123)^{4t}=(1.123)^4=1.590

Then, the multiplicative rate of change is 1.590, which means that every year the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water increases by a factor of 1.590, and that is 1.59 - 1 = 0.590 or 59% increase.

Answer:

(x,y) =(-4,-3) --- Vertex

x = -4 --- Axis of symmetry

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = -6(x + 4)^2 - 3

Solving (a): The vertex

For an equation written in

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

The vertex is:

(x,y) = (h,k)

By comparison:

y = a(x - h)^2 + k  and y = -6(x + 4)^2 - 3

-h =4       k = -3

h =-4         k = -3  

So, the vertex is:

(x,y) =(-4,-3)

Solving (b): The axis of symmetry

For an equation written in

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

The axis of symmetry is:

x = h

In (a):

h =-4

So:

x = -4

The equation x° = 180° - (37°+ 53°) can be used to find the value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; There are three lines in the given diagram. There are a baseline and two other lines. Out of the other two lines, one extends above and below the baseline whereas the other extends only above. Since the baseline is horizontal and the others are at angles we have the sum of all the three angles as 180° i.e. 37°, x°, and 53°.

37° + x° + 53° = 180°.

Step 2; To solve the value of x, we keep the unknown value at the left-hand side whereas all the known values are taken to the right side of the equation.

x° = 180° - (37°+ 53°).

So the fifth option can be used to determine the value of x.

Find the value of “X”
marta [7]

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle equals 180 degrees, b will be used to find the missing angle.

21 + 34 + b = 180

55 + b = 180

subtract 55 from both sides

b = 125

A straight line is 180 degrees and the b, the missing angle, and x are supplementary angles so

125 + x = 180

x = 55
