First we need to find k ( rate of growth)
The formula is
A=p e^kt
A future bacteria 4800
P current bacteria 4000
E constant
K rate of growth?
T time 5 hours
Plug in the formula
4800=4000 e^5k
Solve for k
4800/4000=e^5k
Take the log for both sides
Log (4800/4000)=5k×log (e)
5k=log (4800/4000)÷log (e)
K=(log(4,800÷4,000)÷log(e))÷5
k=0.03646
Now use the formula again to find how bacteria will be present after 15 Hours
A=p e^kt
A ?
P 4000
K 0.03646
E constant
T 15 hours
Plug in the formula
A=4,000×e^(0.03646×15)
A=6,911.55 round your answer to get 6912 bacteria will be present after 15 Hours
Hope it helps!
Answer:
The solution set is the empty set.
Step-by-step explanation:
{x | x < 2} is the set of all numbers less than 2. This means x can take values such as 1.99, 0, -2000 and so on. That is, all values less than 2.
{x | x ≥ 2} is the set of all numbers equal to or greater than 2. This means x can take values such as 2, 2.1, 5000, and so on. That is, 2 or any value greater than 2.
Since there is no sign between the two sets, the question is asking for the intersection between these two sets. That is, what elements are common to these two sets? As we can see, the two sets don't have any common element. Hence, their intersection is the empty set.
(Note that the union of these two sets would be the set of all real numbers as that includes all elements from either set).
Let's call 'it' x. 1/2 is equal to one third of x, so we could say that 1/3x = 1/2
Now we just have a simple equation to solve:
1/3x = 1/2
x = (1/2) / (1/3)
Dividing by a rational number (such as 1/3, which is expressed in fraction form) is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal (the reciprocal of a fraction is itself when the numerator and denominator have been swapped). Therefore
x = (1/2) / (1/3) = (1/2) * 3 = 3/2 = 1.5
To check this answer, test the statement. Half is a third of x, where x=1.5:
1.5 / 3 = 0.5 = 1/2
