A bacteria population is 3000 at time t = 0 and its rate of growth is 1000 · 8t bacteria per hour after t hours.

1 answer:

4 0

P=3000x e^( 1000 x 8t )is the function
t is time, so "after a hour" means that the t is 1.
The problem is asking for the population, which is P
Substitute t for 1 and you obtain:
P= 3000 x e^(1000 x 8 x 1)
P=3000e^8000

On Tuesday the temperature is 1 ºC. By Wednesday it has dropped to –2 ºC. The temperature drops by twice as much from Wednesday

Finger [1]

Answer: $-8^{\circ}C$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The temperature on Tuesday is $1^{\circ}C$

Temperature drops to $-2^{\circ}C$ on Wednesday

Net drop in temperature $1-(-2)=3^{\circ}C$

The temperature drops twice from Wednesday to Thursday

$\Delta T=2\times 3=6^{\circ}C$

Temperature on Thursday

$\Rightarrow -2-6=-8^{\circ}C$

What is the value of x? Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

katen-ka-za [31]

So to start off:

The equation you will want to use for the hypotenuse is

A (squared) + B (squared) = C (squared)

So you will want to fill in the equation like so:

7(7) + 4(4) = C (squared)

So now that you have your information filled out, put it all together!

49 + 16 = 65

Now don't forget that the 65 is SQUARED!

You will want to use the SQUARE ROOT method to help with that!

So what you will want to do is think of the numbers that are PERFECT SQUARES.

A perfect square consist of

Here is the list of perfect squares 1-10:

1 x 1 = 1

2 x 2 = 4

3 x 3 = 9

4 x 4 = 16

5 x 5 = 25

6 x 6 = 36

7 x 7 = 49

8 x 8 = 64

9 x 9 = 81

So look closely at these perfect squares, Do you see where 65 will lie?

It will lie between 8 and 9.

So you will do the square root now.

√65

The answer will come out as:

8.06225775

You will then round it to the nearest tenths place (one after the decimal)

You will look at the two numbers behind the decimal which is

0.6.

As you know,(If you round the tenths place), if the number in the hundredths is 5 or HIGHER. It will round up the number in the tenths place to 1.

So as we know 6 is higher than 5 so your answer would be:

8.1

I hope this helped! :)

How is the Pythagorean theorem related to the distance formula?

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The distance formula is a formalization of the Pythagorean Theorem using (x,y) . They are the same thing (but the distance formula is for working out the distance between two points and Pythagoras theorem is for working out the missing length in a right-angled triangle) in two different contexts.
