Answer:
a. answer choice c
b. 20301
Step-by-step explanation:
You first need to understand a formula for finding the sum of consecutive integers starting from one: (m*(m+1))/2, m is the biggest number in the set.
a. The biggest number in your set is 100, so we plug in 100 for m and solve:
100*101/2=50*101=5050
b. Same thing. Use the formula t plug in 201 for m:
201*202/2=201*101=20301
The only reason you have the picture next to your question is to prove the formula (m*(m+1))/2.
Answer: the population of the culture 6 days after inoculation is 2313.
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
y = b(1 + r)^ t
Where
y represents the population after t days.
t represents the number of days.
b represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
b = 1000
r = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
t = 6 days
Therefore
y = 1000(1 + 0.15)^6
y = 1000(1.15)^6
y = 2313
The cube root of a number is the number which when multiplied by itself three times give you the original number. ... The square root of a number is the number which when multiplied by itself twice give you the original number. As an example, the square root of 9 is 3 because 3×3 = 9
The triangle is a right triangle so use the Pythagorean theorem.
a² + b² = c²
15² + b² = 17²
225 + b² = 289
b² = 64
b = √64
b = 8
Hope this helps :)
