The answer is the last option: \frac{1}{2}

Explanation:

1. You have that the equation of the line is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the y-axis.

2. Therefore, you must find b.

3. Then, you must substitute the points given in the problem and the slope into the equation of the line and solve for b, as following:

y=mx+b\\-\frac{7}{2}=(-\frac{4}{7})(7)+b\\-\frac{7}{2}=-4+b\\b=\frac{1}{2}

A biologist recorded a count of 348 bacteria present in a culture after 5 minutes and 1088 bacteria present after 20 minutes. To
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The initial bacteria population is 238

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us have the increase as an exponential equation

P(t) = I(1 + r)^t

where P(t) is the count at a particular time

r is the percentage increase

I is the initial population

t is the time

So for 5 minutes, we have

348 = I(1 + r)^5

For 20 minutes

1088 = I(1 + r)^20

Divide the second equation by the first

1088/348 = I(1 + r)^20/I(1 + r)^5

3.13 = (1 + r)^15

Take the ln of both sides

ln 3.13 = 15 ln (1 + r)

ln 3.13/15 = ln (1 + r)

0.0761 = ln (1 + r)

1 + r = e^0.0761

1 + r = 1.079

r = 1.079-1

r = 0.079 which is 7.9%

So per minute. we have an increase of 7.9%

So let’s get I by substituting

From;

348 = I(1 + 0.079)^5

348/1.079^5 = I

I = 237.9 which is 238 to the nearest whole number

If you roll two number cubes, what is the probability of their sum being equal to a value of seven or higher?
rodikova [14]
If the cubes are die such that each face has numbers from 1 to 6. Rolling two of them, there are 6x6 or 36 ways in which they may be arranged. For their numbers to sum to 7, the numbers should be 1 and 6, 2 and 5, 2 and 6, 3 and 4, 3 and 5, 3 and 6, 4 and 3, 4 and 4, 4 and 5, 4 and 6, 5 and 2, 5 and 3, 5 and 4, 5 and 5, 5 and 6, 6 and 1, 6 and 2, 6 and 3, 6 and 4, 6 and 5, 6 and 6. All in all there are 21 out of 36 and the probability is equal to 7/12.
