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
Answer:
27.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Using,
R/R' = 2ᵃ/ᵇ------------------ Equation 1
From the equation,
R = mass of Element X before radioactive decay, R' = mass of element X after radioactive decay, a = Time taken, b = half life.
Given: R = 870 grams, R' = 154 grams, b = 11 minutes.
Substitute these values into equation 1
870/154 = 2ᵃ/¹¹
(870/154)¹¹ = 2ᵃ
Solve for a
2ᵃ = (5.649)¹¹
2ᵃ = 187061.26
Taking the logarithm of both side,
Log2ᵃ = Log(187061.26)
⇒ a = log(187061.26)/log2
a = 8.272/0.301
a = 27.5 minutes
16 1/3 is bigger than 1/4
Use long subtraction to evaluate.
$418.51
Perimeter=4h+4
If the base is 2 more than the height, it gives us the equation:
b=h+2
The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle can be though of as 2b+2h, so substituting in (h+2) for b from the first equation, we get 2(h+2)+2h.
This can be simplified to be 2h+4+2h or 4h+4
