Answer:

Customer must pay a Total Amount of $240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount spent = $228

Sales tax = 5.25%

We need to find the Total Amount which need to be paid.

First we will find the amount paid in tax.

Amount paid in tax is equal to Percentage of sales tax multiplied with Amount spent and then divide by 100.

Framing the equation we get;

Amount paid in tax = \frac{5.25}{100}\times 228= \$11.97

Now Total Amount which need to be paid is equal to sum of Amount spent and Amount paid in tax.

Framing in equation form we get;

Total Amount which need to be paid = \$228 +\$11.97 = \$239.97

Rounding to nearest cent we get;

Total Amount which need to be paid = $240

Hence, Customer must pay a Total Amount of $240.

4. Suppose that Peculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply thr
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Peculiar purples would be more abundant

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that eculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply through a mechanism in which each single  bacterial cell splits into four. Time taken for one split is 12 m for I one and 10 minutes for 2nd

The function representing would be

i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

a) Here P0 =3, time t = 60 minutes.

i) I bacteria P = 3(4)^{5} =3072

ii) II bacteria P = 3(4)^{4} =768

b) Since II is multiplying more we find that I type will be more abundant.

The difference in two hours would be

3(4)^{10}- 3(4)^{8} =2949120

c) i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

d) At time 36 minutes we have t = 36

Peculiar purples would be

i) P=3 (4)^{36/12}=192

The rate may not be constant for a longer time.  Hence this may not be accurate.

e) when splits into 2, we get

P=P_o (2^t) where P0 is initial and t = interval of time
