Answer: 3 dollars is saved on 9 bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price of one bar soap is $2

Original cost of 3 bars would be 2×3 = $6

But it was sold at a rate of 3 bars for $5. Amount of money saved on 3 bars would be 6 - 5 = $1

If another 3 bars are bought for $5, the amount saved will be $1 again.

If 3 extra bars are bought for $5, the amount saved will be $1

Total number of bars bought is 3 + 3 + 3 = 9

Total amount saved = 1 + 1 + 1 = $3

Checking,

3 bars = $5

9 bars = (9×5)/3 = $15

Originally, 9 bars = 9×2 =$18

Amount saved = 18 - 15 = $3

You saved $12.6

3 divided by $5 = 0.6

0.6 x 9= $5.4

9 x $2 = $18

$18- $5.4= $12.6

(-4, -7) and (-6, 9) in slope-intercept form. Show work
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Equation of line in slope-intercept form is: y = -8x-39

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(-4, -7) and (-6, 9)

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation

y = mx+b

Here m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

m is found using the formula

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Here

(x1,y1) = (-4-7)

(x2,y2) = (-6,9)

Putting the values in the formula

m = \frac{9+7}{-6+4} = \frac{16}{-2} = -8

Putting slope in general equation

y = -8x+b

Putting (-6,9) in the equation

9 = -8(-6)+b\\9 = 48+b\\b = 9-48\\b = -39

Putting the value of b we get

y = -8x-39

Hence,

Equation of line in slope-intercept form is: y = -8x-39

The function f(x)=Acosh(Cx)+Bsinh(Cx). I need help determining the value of constant C>0 when the second derivative f''(x)=25
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

C = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to remember that:

For the function:

h(x) = Sinh(k*x)

We have:

h'(x) = k*Cosh(k*x)

and for the Cosh function:

g(x) = Cosh(k*x)

g'(x) = k*Cosh(k*x).

Now let's go to our problem:

We have f(x) = A*cosh(C*x) + B*Sinh(C*x)

We want to find the value of C such that:

f''(x) = 25*f(x)

So let's derive f(x):

f'(x) = A*C*Sinh(C*x) + B*C*Cosh(C*x)

and again:

f''(x) = A*C*C*Cosh(C*x) + B*C*C*Sinh(C*x)

f''(x) = C^2*(A*cosh(C*x) + B*Sinh(C*x)) = C^2*f(x)

And we wanted to get:

f''(x) = 25*f(x) = C^2*f(x)

then:

25 = C^2

√25 = C

And because we know that C > 0, we take the positive solution of the square root, then:

C = 5

A bacteria culture grows with constant relative growth rate. The bacteria count was 1,920 after 4 hours and 1,966,080 after 12 h
attashe74 [19]

From the calculation, the growth rate is 0.88.

<h3>What is the growth rate?</h3>

To find the relative growth rate

P1 = Poe^rt

P2 = Poe^rt

Thus;

1920 = Poe^4r ------ (1)

1966080 =Poe^12r -------(2)

P2/P1 gives;

1966080/1920 = Poe^12r/Poe^4r

1024 = e^12r/e^4r

1024 =e^8r

1024 = (e^r)^8

2^10 = (e^r)^8

e^r = 2^1.25

e^r = 2.38

r = ln(2.38)

r = 0.88

The initial size of the culture is;

1920 = Poe^(0.88 * 4)

Po = 1920/e^(0.88 * 4)

Po = 57

The  expression for the exact number of bacteria after t hours is

P(t) = 57e^0.08t

The growth (in bacteria per hour) after 9.5 hours is

P(t) = 57e^(0.88 * 9.5)

P(t) = 243544

For the number to reach 72,000;

72,000 =  57e^0.88t

72,000/57 = e^0.88t

ln 126 = ln[e^0.88t]

4.8 = 0.88t

t = 4.8/0.88

t = 5.5 hours
