Given:
Initial number of bacteria = 3000
With a growth constant (k) of 2.8 per hour.
To find:
The number of hours it will take to be 15,000 bacteria.
Solution:
Let P(t) be the number of bacteria after t number of hours.
The exponential growth model (continuously) is:

Where,
is the initial value, k is the growth constant and t is the number of years.
Putting
in the above formula, we get



Taking ln on both sides, we get

![[\because \ln e^x=x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cbecause%20%5Cln%20e%5Ex%3Dx%5D)



Therefore, the number of bacteria will be 15,000 after 0.575 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
5m³ + 2m - 7m³ - 8m
= -2m³ -6m
= -2m(m² + 3)
Answer:
Explanation:
<u />
<u>1. First find the density of your chain</u>
- Volume = displaced water volume
= Volume of Final level of water - initial level of water
= 20 ml - 15 ml = 5 ml
- Density = 66.7g / 5 ml = 13.34 g/ml
<u />
<u>2. Second, write the denisty of the chain as the weighted average of the densities of the other metals:</u>
Mass of gold × density of gold + mass of other metals × density of other metals, all divided by the mass of the chain.
Calling x the amount of gold, then the amount of other metals is 66.7 - x:



Then, there are 26.47 grams of gold in 66.7 grams of chain, which yields a percentage of:
- (26.47 / 66.7) × 100 = 39.7%
