Since this culture of bacteria obeys the law of uninhibited growth. Given that 500 bacteria are present initially, and there are 800 after 1 hour, a growth rate of 0.470003629246 (k value) has been calculated. <span>5243 </span>will be present after 5 hours.

The law of uninhibited growth follows below formula:

A = Pe^(rt)

For your problem, we need to first look for the rate, given the initial and final number of bacteria..

A = Pe^(rt)
800 = (500)(e)^r(1)

(800/500) = (e)^r(1)
ln (8/5) = ln (e) ^ r
r = 0.47

substitute the value of r to get the number of bacteria after 5 hours:

A = Pe^(rt)
A = (500)(e)^(0.47)(5)

A = 5,242.78 or 5,243

Daniel and Hector both throw shot put for their school's track and field team.
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Option B : Hector by 3 feet is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean of Daniel = \frac{Sum\ of\ quantities}{Number\ of\ quantities}

Mean of Daniel = \frac{27+30+34+35+34}{5} = \frac{160}{5}

Mean of Daniel = 32 feet

Mean of Hector = \frac{38+24+38+40+35}{5} = \frac{175}{5}

Mean of Hector = 35 feet

Therefore,

Hector has a greater mean

Difference = Hector's Mean - Daniel's Mean

Difference = 35 - 32

Difference = 3 feet

Hence,

Option B : Hector by 3 feet is the correct answer.
