Answer:

We pay 18 percent of the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the original price

We get 60 % off on clearance

That means we pay 100-60 = 40 % of the original price

New price = .4x

Now we get an additional discount of 55% off the new price.

100-55 = .45

We will have to pay 45% of the new price

.45 (.4x) = .18 x

We pay 18 percent of the original price

A culture started with 3,000 bacteria. After 8 hours, it grew to 3,300 bacteria. Predict how many bacteria will be present after
Sav [38]

Answer:

3,462\ bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

y=a(b^x)

where

x is the time in hours

y is the numbers of bacteria

a is the initial value

b is the base

r is the rate of growth

b=(1+r)

we have that

a=3,000\ bacteria

For x=8, y=3,300

substitute in the exponential function

3,300=3,000(b^8)

solve for b

1.1=(b^8)

b=\sqrt[8]{1.1}

b=1.0120

Find the value of r

r=b-1=1.0120-1=0.0120=1.20\%

The equation is equal to

y=3,000(1.012^x)

For x=12 hours

substitute the value of x in the equation

y=3,000(1.012^{12})

y=3,462\ bacteria

If michael jordan has a vertical leap of 1.29 m, then what is his takeoff speed and his hang time
spin [16.1K]
The formula for the vertical height, h, attained with a vertical take off speed of u is
u² - 2gh = 0
where
g = 9.8 m/s², acceleration due to gravity.

Because h = 1.29 m, therefore
u² = 2*9.8*1.39 = 27.244
u = 5.2196 m/s

Also, the time of flight, t, required when the vertical take-off speed is u is given by
ut  - 0.5gt² = 0.
Therefore
5.2196t - 0.5*9.8*t² = 0
5.2196t - 4.9t² = 0
t(5.2196 - 4.9t) = 0
t = 0, or t = 5.2196/4.9 = 1.0652 s

t = 0 corresponds to take-off.
t = 1.0652 s corresponds to landing.
The hang time is 1.0652 s.

Answer:
Take-off speed = 5.22 m/s (nearest hundredth)
Hang time  = 1.065 s (nearest thousandth)
