Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the price. 20% (0.20) 7.25% (0.0725)
ANSWER
Approximately after 15 minutes.
EXPLANATION
The growth rate of the first bacteria is
The growth rate of the first bacteria :
To find the time that, there will be an equal number of bacteria, we equate the two equation;
We solve for t to get,
Or
We discard the negative value.
This implies that,
The equation given in the question is
x^2 - 36 = 5x
x^2 - 5x - 36 = 0
x^2 - 9x + 4x - 36 = 0
x(x - 9) + 4(x - 9) = 0
(x - 9) (x + 4) = 0
From the above set we can say that x = 9 is the positive solution of the equation given in the question. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has come to your great help.
Notice how points T and Z are vertically aligned, or vertically lined up. This is where the graph fails the vertical line test.
The input x = 2 leads to the outputs y = 3 and y = 5 (which are the y coordinates of points Z and T in that order).
A function is only possible when any given input leads to <u>exactly one</u> output only. It would be like saying "the conversion function from Celsius to Fahrenheit has 0 degrees C convert to both 32 degrees F and 50 degrees F at the same time". But such a statement makes no sense and it's not useful. So this is one example of why having one output makes sense for a function.
In short, we need one output for any given input. But the input x = 2 leads to more than one output. That's why we don't have a function.
