In a laboratory, under favorable conditions, a bacteria grows at an exponential rate. the number of cells C in the population is

modeled by the function C(t)=ab^t, where a and b are constants and t is measured in hours.
T                C(t)

---            -------
0                 8
-----           --------
1                 24

Which function can be used to find the number of cells of bacteria in the population at time t?


A. C(t)=8(1)^t

B. C(t)=24(1)^t

C. C(t)=8(3)^t

D. C(t)=24(3)^t

Answer:

Eponential model is given by C(t)=8(3)^t

C is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table, we have

For t = 0, C = 8

For t = 1, C = 24

The given model is C(t)=ab^t

Plugging, t = 0, C = 8 in the equation, we get

8=ab^0\\8=a\cdot1\\a=8

Now, plugging t = 1, C = 24 and a = 8 in the given exponential model

24=8b^1\\24=8b\\b=3

Therefore, the exponential model is given by

C(t)=8(3)^t

A line passes through the point (-4,-5) and had a slope of 5/2. Write an equation in slope-intercept form
daser333 [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

as we have a point and the slope, we can start with the point-slope form and then transform.

the point-slope form is

y - y1 = a(x - x1)

(x1, y1) being a point on the line, a being the slope.

the slope-interceot form is

y = ax + b

a being the slope again, b being the y-intercept (the y value for x = 0).

so, we have

y - -5 = 5/2 × (x - -4)

y + 5 = 5/2 × (x + 4) = 5x/2 + 5×4/2 = 5x/2 + 10

y = 5x/2 + 5

or

y = (5/2)x + 5

and this is already the slope-intercept form. all done.

A pot of stew is placed on a stove to heat. The temperature of the liquid reaches 170°F, and then the pot is taken off the burne
aivan3 [116]
With the given hint to be able to answer the question above, the equation for Newton's law of cooling is as follows:
                         T(t) = T(s) + (T0 - Ts)e^-kt
where T(t) is the body's temperature at any given time, Ts is the temperature of the surrounding, T0 is the initial temperature, and k is constant. 
Substituting the values with the given above,
                             T(t) = 76 + (170 - 76)*e^(-0.34)(7)
This gives us the answer,
                                     T(t) = 84.7 degrees F
