How many whole minutes does it take 10000 viruses to grow to 1 million if their population doubles every 15 minutes?

1 answer:

8 0

Let's solve how many whole minutes does it take 10 000 viruses to grow to 1 million if their population doubles every 15 minutes.
=> 10 000 x n = 1 000 000
=> 1 000 000 / 10 000 = 100 times
=> 100 times * 15 minutes = 1500 minutes to make 1 million viruses

Answer: $\frac{\sqrt{26}}{26}$

This is the square root of 26 over 26. The second 26 is not inside the square root. You can type it in as sqrt(26)/26.

========================================================

$\theta$ is in Q1 so $\sin(\theta) > 0$

Use the trig identity below and plug in the given value to get...

$\sin\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) = \pm \sqrt{\frac{1-\cos(x)}{2}}\\\\\sin\left(\frac{2\theta}{2}\right) = \pm \sqrt{\frac{1-\cos(2\theta)}{2}}\\\\\sin(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{1-\cos(2\theta)}{2}} \ \ \text{since } \ \sin(\theta) > 0\\\\\sin(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{12}{13}}{2}}\\\\$

$\sin(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{1}{26}}\\\\\sin(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{1}}{\sqrt{26}}\\\\\sin(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{26}}\\\\\sin(\theta) = \frac{1*\sqrt{26}}{\sqrt{26}*\sqrt{26}} \ \ \text{ rationalizing denominator}\\\\\sin(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{26}}{26}\\\\$

------------------------------

Edit:

To find cos(theta), we use the pythagorean identity below

$\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) = 1\\\\\cos^2(\theta) = 1-\sin^2(\theta)\\\\\cos(\theta) = \sqrt{1-\sin^2(\theta)}\ \ \text{cosine is positive in Q1}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \sqrt{1-\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{26}}\right)^2}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \sqrt{1-\frac{1}{26}}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{25}{26}}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{26}}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \frac{5}{\sqrt{26}}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \frac{5\sqrt{26}}{\sqrt{26}*\sqrt{26}}\\\\\cos(\theta) = \frac{5\sqrt{26}}{26}\\\\$
