Subtract 2x from both sides.
3y = - 2x - 12
Divide every term by 3 to get the y-variable by itself.
y = - 2/3x - 4
Since the equation is not in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), your y-intercept is just the number in the b slot. Y-intercept is - 4 or (0, - 4).
Now to find your x-intercept, plug in 0 where the y-variable is and solve for x.
0 = - 2/3x - 4
4 = - 2/3x
Multiply both sides by - 3/2 to isolate the variable.
4(- 3/2) = x
- 12/2 = x
- 6 = x.
Your x-intercept is - 6 or (- 6, 0).
Answer: Hello there!
We know that the culture has 2000 bacteria initially (at t = 0 min), and it doubles when t = 40min, again at t = 80 min, and so on
And the rate of grouth is proportional to the population, then we can obtain an expression of the form:
P(t) = 2000*k(t) where k(t) is the factor that defines the growth of the population:
we know that:
p(0) = 2000*k(0) = 2000
p(40) = 2000*k(40) = 2000*2 = 4000
p(80) = 2000*k(80) = 2000*2*2 = 8000
etc
then we can see that k(t) = 2^(t/40)
where k(0) = 1, k(40) = 2, k(80) = 2*2, etc
then the function that models the population of the culture is:
p(t) = 2000*2^(t/40)
where t is in minutes.
