First find the rate of growth using the formula of
A=p e^rt
A 7200
P 6000
E constant
R rate of growth?
T time 6 hours
We need to solve for r
R=[log (A/p)÷log (e)]÷t
R=(log(7,200÷6,000)÷log(e))÷6
R=0.03 rate of growth

Now predict how many bacteria will be present after 17 hours using the same formula
A=p e^rt
A ?
P 6000
R 0.03
E constant
T 17 hours
A=6,000×e^(0.03×17)
A=9,991.7 round your answer to get
A=9992

Hey there!

In order to solve this, we'll have to find how many additional bacteria the culture gains per hour. We can do this with some simple math:

7200 – 6000 = 1200

1200 ÷ 6 = 200

The culture gains 200 more bacteria per hour. Now, just multiply that by 17 hours and add that to the initial amount in the culture. 

200 × 17 = 3400

3400 + 6000 = 9400

There will be a total of 9400 bacteria in the culture after 17 hours. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

The image of the point (3, -4) under a translation is (0, –5). Find the coordinatesof the image of the point (8,7) under the sam
Sav [38]

We will have the following:

*First: We determine the translation rule:

We have that the point went from (3, -4) to (0, -5), thus the translation rule would be:

(x,y)\to(x-3,x-1)

Second: We apply the translation rule to the other point to determine it's image, that is:

(8,7)\to(8-3,7-1)\to(5,6)

So, the image of the second point is (5, 6).

A marketing firm would like to test-market the name of a new energy drink targeted at 18- to 29-year-olds via social media. A st
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

(c) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media is 0.198.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = an US adult who does not uses social media.

<em>Y</em> = an US adult between the ages 18 and 29.

<em>Z</em> = an US adult between the ages 30 and above.

The information provided is:

P (X) = 0.35

P (Z) = 0.78

P (Y ∪ X') = 0.672

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media as follows:

P (US adult uses social media (<em>X'</em><em>)</em>) = 1 - P (US adult so not use social media)

                                                   =1-P(X)\\=1-0.35\\=0.65

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 as follows:

P (Adults between 18 - 29 (<em>Y</em>)) = 1 - P (Adults 30 or above)

                                            =1-P(Z)\\=1-0.78\\=0.22

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media as follows:

P (Y ∩ X') = P (Y) + P (X') - P (Y ∪ X')

                =0.22+0.65-0.672\\=0.198

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media is 0.198.
