Answer:
180%
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation:
Variable x = percent of markup
102.56/56.98 = x/100
Cross multiply
102.56 × 100 = 56.98 × x
10,256 = 56.98x
Divide both sides by 56.98:
179.99297.... = x
Round to nearest whole number:
180 = x
Check your work:
56.98 × 180%
Convert the percentage into a decimal:
56.98 × 1.80
102.564
Round to nearest cent:
102.56
Correct!
We need to know the definition of the "combined function" h(x). I'm going to guess--by looking at answers--that the function is

making it

This function is undefined wherever the denominator is equal to 0 (division by zero is undefined). Factor the denominator.

The two values of x that make the denominator 0 are 3 and -3, otherwise written

Answer: a) 
b) 25165824000
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential equation for growth is given by :-
, where a= initial value , b =multiplicative growth factor and t = time.
Given : A bacteria culture contains 1500 bacteria initially and doubles every hour.
i.e. a = 1500 and b= 2
Then, the function N that models the number of bacteria after t hours will be :
To find , the number of bacteria after 24 hours , we put t= 24 in above equation , we get
Hence, the number of bacteria after 24 hours is 25165824000.
Answer:
2.275%
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do here is to calculate the z-score
Mathematically;
z-score = (x-mean)/SD
from the question, x = 12,300 hours , mean = 11,500 hours while Standard deviation(SD) = 400 hours
Plugging the values we have;
z-score = (12,300-11,500)/400 = 800/400 = 2
Now, we want to calculate P(z ≤ 2)
This is so because we are calculating within a particular value
To calculate this, we use the z-score table.
Mathematically;
P(z ≤ 2) = 1 - P(z > 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275
To percentage = 2.275%
