Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the attached photo supports for your question

Here is my anser:

We need to find the slope of the of and from the graph, we see that if x increases from 2 to 4, y decreases from 4 to -2.  Thus, the slope of the blue line is : \frac{-2-4}{4-2} = -3

But the slope of the perpend. bisector of the blue line is the negative reciprocal of -3, or  m= 1/3.

Let's find the slope-intercept form of this bisector.  We need to determine b in y=mx+b.  Referring to the midpoint of the blue line, x= 3; y= 1; and m=1/3.  Then

y=mx+b becomes 1=(1/3)(3) + b.  Solving for b:  1=1+b.  Then b=0.

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the blue line through (3,1) is  y=mx + b, or y=(1/3)x + 0, or y=x/3.

Answer:

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours is

= 89 cells

Step-by-step explanation:

A cell divides into two cells every 20 minutes

In one hour, the cell will divide into 60/20 * 2 = 6 cells

Each cell growth 6 cells per hour

Initial population of a culture = 50 cells

t = time in hours

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours = initial population * growth factor

= 50 * 1.772

= 88.6

= 89 cells

Part A)
If f(x) - 3 is the new equation, it means there is a vertical translation of f(x) down 3 units. The y-intercept will decrease by 3 units. Areas of increasing on the function may be lessened as the function is being translated down 3 units. The areas of decrease will increase because the function is being translated down. End behaviour will not change from a translation as long as the function is continuous at each end, (not a finite function with end points). The evenness or oddness of f(x) will not change either.

Part B:
The y-intercept will be flipped horizontally about the x-axis and multiplied by 2. This will mean that if the y-intercept was positive, it will now be negative and vice versa. The increasing and decreasing regions of the graph will be flipped, so anywhere f(x) was positive will now be negative and vice versa. They will also be double what they were before because all values are multiplied by 2. The end behaviour will switch. If f(x) was from Quad1->Quad3 for example, it will now be Quad2->Quad4 because of the flip at the x-axis. The evenness and oddness of the function will not change seeing as the degree of f(x) is not affected.

How to solve this <br><br> 4x-3(x-2)=21
Natasha_Volkova [10]

We can start by getting rid of parenthesis:

4x-3x+6=21

Then we can combine like terms:

x=21-6

x=15

So our end product is x=15.

Hope I helped soz if I'm wrong ouo.
