A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}

Diego deposited \$ 10,000$10,000 for 44 years at a rate of 6\%6% simple interest. ​Find the amount of interest Diego earned afte
timama [110]

Answer:

$2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The correct years is 4 not 44

The Principal  = $10,000

Time period = 4 years

Rate = 6 % p.a.

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

Simple Interest = $10,000 * 6% * 44

Simple Interest = $2,400

So, the amount of interest Diego earned after four years is $2,400

If a cube with the length of the side of 4 cm is cut into smaller cubes with the length of the side of 1 cm, then what is the pe
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

300 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the larger cube =4 cm

So volume V=side^3=4^3=64cm^3

Length of the smaller cube = 1 cm

Volume of the smaller cube V=side^3=1^3=1cm^3

So total number of smaller cube =\frac{64}{1}=64

Surface area of the larger cube A=6\times side^2=6\times 4^2=144cm^2

Surface area of the 64 smaller cube A=64\times 6\times side^2=64\times 6\times 1^2=384cm^2

So percentage increase in surface area =\frac{384-96}{96}\times 100=300 %
