Answer: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a fraction in lowest terms, remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100. In this case, 15% can be written as the ratio 15 to 100 or 15/100.
Notice however that 15/100 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by 5 which gives us 3/10.
Therefore, 15% can be written as the fraction 3/10.
Answer:
Bacterial population at the time of 10 hours = 1040000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the function that defines the bacterial population after 'x' hours is,
p(x) = a(b)ˣ
Where a = Initial population
And 'x' = Duration or time
Since bacterial population is getting doubled every hour,
2a = a(b)¹
b = 2
Therefore, function will be,
p(x) = a(2)ˣ
From the graph attached,
Point (5, 32500) lies on the graph of the function.
32500 = a(2)⁵
a = 
Therefore, the function will be,
p(x) = 1015.625(2)ˣ
For x = 10 hours,
p(10) = 1015.625(2)¹⁰
= 1040000 bacteria
Puting it into the quadrait equation ((-b+-[b^2-4ac]^(1/2)/2a), we get that x= 31^(1/2)-5 or 31^(1/2)+5
1. Exponents are the repeated multiplication of a number. It is represented
by the formula of a^n where a is the number to be repeated and n is the number
of times the number is being multiplies by itself. Also include the sign of the
number, no matter how it is multiplied, it is still important. For instance you have 4(4),
you have 4 as the repeated number. You can see that it is multiplied by itself
by two times. So you have (-4)^2.
2. Graphs and tables are the key features in finding a model between two quantities. If he data values, after plotting it into a graph, produces a straight line, then you will have a direct relationship between the two and sometimes you can get an equation of the line. Sometimes it will give you a curved line. That is why it is important to graph the values of the table to better understand the relationship between two variables.
