ou purchase a computer for $755.00 plus 5% sales tax. You decide to finance it through the store's 0% interest program for six m

onths. The terms state you must pay $50.00/month and that if you miss a payment, you will be assessed a late fee of $39.00 plus the interest accrued to that point at a 17.25% APR. If you miss a payment in the fifth month, how much interest will you be charged?

The area of a rectangle is 5/6 sq foot. The width is 2/3 foot. The length of the rectangle is how many feet

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The answer is

$\frac{5}{4} \\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Since we are finding the length

<h3> $length = \frac{area}{width} \\$ </h3>

From the question

area = 5/6 sq. feet

width = 2/3 foot

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the length

The length is

$length = \frac{5}{6} \div \frac{2}{3} \\ = \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{3}{2} \\ = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \\ = \frac{5}{4}$

We have the final answer as

$\frac{5}{4} \\$

Hope this helps you

$(a-b)(a-b)=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\a^2-2ab+b^2=a^2-b^2\\2b^2=2ab\\b^2=ab\implies a=b \vee b=0$

The E. coli bacteria has a volume of 6 µm3 . In optimal conditions, an E. coli bacteria will double about every 30 minutes. Unde

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It is going to take around 19 hours and 15 minutes for a single bacteria to grow to fill a thimble with volume 1 cm3.

It will take 57.6 hours to for the volume to fill the entire earth

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that the volume of the bacteria is a geometric sequence, and each time moment is an arithmetic sequence.

Each geometric sequence has the following format:

${a, ar, ar^{2}, ar^{3},...}$

In which:

a is the first term

r is the common ratio.

We can find any term of the sequence by the following equation:

$x_{n} = ar^{(n-1)}$

Each arithmetic sequence has the following format:

${a, a+d, a+2d,...}$

In which:

a is the first term

d is the difference between the terms.

We can find any term of the sequence by the following equation:

$x_{n} = a + d(n)$

How i am going to solve this problem.

We have the sequence that is the volume of the bacteria:

Obs: $1(um)^{3} = 10^{-18}m^{3}$

$V_{n} = {6*10^{-18}, 12*10^{-18},...}$

$a = 6*10^{-18}$

$r = 2$

And the following arithmetic sequence that are the time(in hours).

$T_{n} = {0,0.5,1,...}$

$a = 0$

$d = 0.5$

$T_{n} = 0.5n$

How long will it take for a single bacterium to grow to fill a thimble with volume 1 cm3 ?

I am going to find the value of n for which $V_{n} = 1cm^{3}$ , then i find the value at this position in the arithmetic sequence. So

$1cm^{3} = 10^{-6}m^{3}$

$V_{n} = 6*10^{-18}*(2^{(n-1)})$

$10^{-6} = 6*10^{-18}*(2^{(n-1)})$

$\frac{10^{-6}}{6*10^{-18}} = 2^{(n-1)})$

Obs: $a^{b-c} = \frac{a^{b}}{a^{c}}$

$\frac{10^{12}}{6} = \frac{2^{n}}{2}$

$2^{n} = \frac{10^{12}}{3}$

Now, we have to apply these following logarithim proprierties to find the value of n:

$log a^{n} = n log a$

$log(\frac{a}{b}) = log a - log b$

$log 10^{n} = n$

log 2 = 0.30

log 3 = 0.48

$log 2^{n} = log(\frac{10^{12}}{3})$

$n log 2 = log(10^{12}) - log 3$

$0.30n = 12 - 0.48$

$0.30n = 11.52$

$n = 38.4$

Lets find $T_{38}$ and $T_{39}$ in the arithmetic sequence.

$T_{n} = 0.5n$

$T_{38} = 0.5*38 = 19$

$T_{39} = 0.5*39 = 19.5$

It is going to take around 19 hours and 15 minutes for a single bacteria to grow to fill a thimble with volume 1 cm3.

How long will it take for the volume to fill the entire earth 1.08 × 108 km3 ?

$1 (km)^{3} = 10^{9}m^{3}$

So

$1.08*10^{8} km^{3} = 1.08*10^{17} m^{3} = 108*10^{15}m^{3}$

Lets solve the same way as the first question.

$V_{n} = 6*10^{-18}*(2^{(n-1)})$

$108*10^{15} = 6*10^{-18}*(2^{(n-1)})$

$\frac{108*10^{15}}{6*10^{-18}} = 2^{(n-1)})$

$18*10^{33} = \frac{2^{n}}{2}$

$2^{n} = 36 * 10^{33}$

Aside from the proprierties seen in the first exercise, we also have that

log a*b = log a + log b

$log (2^{n}) = log(36 * 10^{33})$

$n log 2 = log 36 + log 10^{33}$

$0.30n = 1.56 + 33$

$0.30n = 34.56$

$n = \frac{34.56}{0.30}$

$n = 115.2$

$T_{115} = 0.5*115.2 = 57.6$

It will take 57.6 hours to for the volume to fill the entire earth
