Answer:

415.63 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Growth can be represented by the equation A=A_0e^{rt}. We can find the rate at which it grows by using t=25 minutes and \frac{A_{0}}{A} =2 or double the amount at that time. The first step we always take is to divide A_0 by A.

[tex]\frac{A_{0}}{A}=e^{rt}\\2=e^{r(25)}

2=e^{(25)r}

To solve for r, we will take the natural log of both sides and use log rules to isolate r.

ln 2=ln e^{(25)r}\\ln 2=25r (ln e)\\\frac{ln2}{25} =r

We know lne=1 so we were able to cancel it out and divide both sides by 25.

We solve with a calculator \frac{ln2}{25} =r\\0.0277=r

We change 0.0277 into a percent by multiplying by 100 to get 2.77% as the rate.

The equation is A=A_0e^{0.0277t} .

We repeat the step above substituting A=5,000,000, A_0=50, and r=0.02777. Then solve for t.

5000000=50e^{0.0277t}\\\frac{5000000}{50} =e^{0.0277t}\\100000=e^{0.0277t}\\ln100000=lne^{0.0277t}\\ln100000=0.02777t(lne)\\\frac{ln100000}{0.0277} =t

t=415.63 minutes

Which of the following p values will lead us to reject the null hypothesis if the level of significance equals .05?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

So then our significance level is \alpha=0.05 and we need to remember these two conditions:

1) If the p value p_v we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given

2) If the p value p_v \geq \alpha we have enough evidence to FAIL reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given

And baed on the options we see that the only possibility would be:

d. 0.015

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know for which value we would REJECT the null hypothesis.

So then our significance level is \alpha=0.05 and we need to remember these two conditions:

1) If the p value p_v we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given

2) If the p value p_v \geq \alpha we have enough evidence to FAIL reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given

Across which axis was point A reflected​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

When point A with coordinates (0, -1) is reflected across the x-axis and mapped onto point A', the coordinates of A' will be (0, 1).

i.e A'(0, 1) is the image of point A after a reflection.

Hence, point A is reflected across the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we reflect a point A across the x-axis, the value of 'y' gets negated, but the value of 'x' remains unchanged.

In other words, when point P with coordinates (x, y) is reflected across the x-axis and mapped onto point P', the coordinates of P' will be (x, -y).

Thus, the rule is:

P(x, y) → P'(x, -y)

Thus, when point A with coordinates (0, -1) is reflected across the x-axis and mapped onto point A', the coordinates of A' will be (0, 1).

i.e A'(0, 1) is the image of point A after a reflection.

Hence, point A is reflected across the x-axis.
