As per the given information;

Bacteria triples every month.

Originally, there were 4 bacterial cells.

We are suppose to find how many there will be after 15 months.

Hence we can say , the number of bacteria after n month can be given using the exponential growth function

a_n=4*3^n

So number of bacteria after 15 month will be

a_{15}=4*3^{15}

The revenue of a company that makes backpacks is given by the formula R = 34.S0x, where x represents the number of backpacks sol
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Revenue = 1380

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Revenue means the sales or turnover of a company when it sells its products. In other words, it is nothing but the income of a company on selling the products.

Here, the company is selling backpacks. So, revenue is the amount earned by the company on selling 'x' backpacks. The linear model to represent the same is given below.

The revenue received from selling 'x' backpacks is given as:

R=34.50x

Number of backpacks sold (x) = 40

Now, in order to find the revenue received on selling 40 backpacks, we need to plug in 40 for 'x' in the equation above and solve for the revenue, 'R'.

On plugging 40 for 'x', we get:

R=34.50\times 40\\\\R=1380

Therefore, the revenue received by the company on selling 40 backpacks is 1380.

KatRina [158]

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you are rounding to the hundreds, you look at the tens place. The tens place is a "1" and 1 is below five, so you round down to 200.

Dan is comparing the cost of having printed and prepared by two companies
Kay [80]

For 4 copies, the total cost for preparing and printing will be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

p be the number of pages

Company A;

Charges of preparing = $6

Charges of per page print = $2.50

A(p)= 2.50p + 6   Eqn 1

Company B;

Charges of preparing = $4

Charges of per page print = $3

B(p)= 3p + 4    Eqn 2

For equaling the cost;

A(p) = B(p)

2.50p+6=3p+4\\2.50p-3p=4-6\\-0.50p=-2

Dividing both sides by -0.50

\frac{-0.50p}{-0.50}=\frac{-2}{-0.50}\\p=4

For 4 copies, the total cost for preparing and printing will be the same.
