Answer:

it will take about 7.5 hours to increase from 20 to 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

y(t) = a  e^kt

20 = a e^ kt1

2000 = a e^ kt2

divide these equations

2000/20 = a e^ kt2/ a e^ kt1

when dividing the exponents subtract

100 =a/a e^(kt2-kt1)

factor out the k

100 = e ^ k(t2-t1)

take the natural log on each side

ln(100) = ln (e^ k(t2-t1)

ln (100) = k(t2-t1)

divide by k

ln(100)/k = (t2-t1)

we know k=.614

ln(100)/.614 = t2-t1

7.500277 = t2-t1

it will take about 7.5 hours to increase from 20 to 2000

Answer:
x³ - 3x² - 18x

Explanation:
Before we begin, remember the following:
xᵃ * xᵇ = xᵃ⁺ᵇ

Now, for the given:
To solve thus question, we will simply multiply each term from the first bracket by each term from the second bracket and then combine like terms to get the final answer.

This can be done as follows:
(x + 3)(x² - 6x)
x(x²) + x(-6x) + 3(x²) + 3(-6x)
x³ - 6x² + 3x² - 18x
x³ - 3x² - 18x

Hope this helps :)
