88. A scientist is studying the growth of a population of bacteria. At the beginning of her study, she has 800 bacteria. She not

ices that the population is quadrupling every hour.

Answer:

p(t)=800(4^{t})

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial population of bacteria is 800 and we know that this number is quadrupling every hour.

We're going to find a function <em>p</em> in terms of <em>t </em>(time) that gives us the population of bacteria at that time. (t is in hours)

This kind of formulas are written as (initial population)(growth radio)^time

Since the population is quadrupling every hour the function in terms of t (where t is expressed in hours) would be:

p(t)=800(4^{t})

Can someone help me please

Answer:

  {Segments, Geometric mean}

  {PS and QS, RS}

  {PS and PQ, PR}

  {PQ and QS, QR}

Step-by-step explanation:

The three geometric mean relationships are derived from the similarity of the triangles the similarity proportions can be written 3 ways, each giving rise to one of the geometric mean relations.

  short leg : long leg = SP/RS = RS/SQ   ⇒   RS² = SP·SQ

  short leg : hypotenuse = RP/PQ = PS/RP   ⇒   RP² = PS·PQ

  long leg : hypotenuse = RQ/QP = QS/RQ   ⇒   RQ² = QS·QP

I find it easier to remember when I think of it as <em>the segment from R is equal to the geometric mean of the two segments the other end is connected to</em>.

__

  segments PS and QS, gm RS

  segments PS and PQ, gm PR

  segments PQ and QS, gm QR

If the correlation coefficient is 0.96, how confident can you be that your predicted value for the cost of a call at 70 minutes
Kitty [74]
Very confident because a correlation coefficient of 1 is perfect then a correlation coefficient of .96 means it is like 96% accurate

A figure is made from 8 units blocks.Its 3 units tall.What is the maximum length the figure could be?Explain.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
<span>i think the maximum length of the figure would be : 6 The total blocks that exist to form should be 8 we know that 3 is used for the height , so the remaining will be 5. but we can use the first blocks as the foundation for the additional length. The figure would look like this : O O OOOOOO ---------> total of 8 blocks</span>
