W=l-8
a=9
a=lw
9=(l-8)l
9=l²-8l
0=l²-8l-9
factor
0=(l-9)(l+1)
set to zero
l-9=0
l=9
l+1=0
l=-1, false length can't be negative


l=9
the length is 9 units long

A biologist recorded a count of 337 bacteria present in a culture after 5 minutes and 699 bacteria present after 15 minutes.
hoa [83]

The initial population was 234.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

<u>Formula for the exponential growth</u> is:   A= P*e^r^t , where P is the initial amount, A is the final amount, r is the rate of growth and  t  is the time duration.

There was 337 bacteria after 5 minutes and 699 bacteria after 15 minutes. So, the equations will be......

337=P*e^5^r .................................. (1)\\ \\ 699=P*e^1^5^r ................................. (2)

Now dividing equation (2) by equation (1) , we will get .......

\frac{699}{337}=\frac{e^1^5^r}{e^5^r} \\ \\ e^1^0^r = \frac{699}{337}

<u>Taking 'natural log'</u> on both sides.........

ln (e^1^0^r) = ln (\frac{699}{337})\\ \\ 10r= 0.7295....\\ \\ r= 0.07295.... \approx 0.073

Now, plugging this r=0.073 into equation (1), we will get......

337= P*e^5^(^0^.^0^7^3^)\\ \\ 337= P*1.4405 \\ \\ P= 233.946 \approx 234

So, the initial population was 234.

PLEASE ANSWER AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!! 20 POINTS!! Find the area of the following shape. You must show all work to receive credit.
monitta

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Im going to divide this up to make it easier

first im going to do the triangle on top which we need the formula for that which would be

(4*2) / 2 which is( base * height )/2 then 4*2 = 8 /2 = 4

then ill deal with the rectangle just below that triangle

which is 3*2 which is 6

then last is triangle which is 2*2 which is 4 / 2 so 2

then add all together

4 + 6 + 2 = 12
