Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{0.0462 min}^{-1}}

Step-by-step explanation:

One formula for the reproduction of bacteria is

\dfrac{N}{N_{0}} = e^{kt}

Data:

N = 2

N₀ = 1

  t = 15 min

Calculation:

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{N}{N_{0}}& =& e^{kt}\\\\\dfrac{2}{1}& = & e^{k\times15 \text{ min}}\\\\2 & = & e^{15k \text{ min}}\\\ln 2 & = & 15k \text{ min}\\k & = & \dfrac{\ln2 }{\text{15 min}}\\\\& = & \textbf{0.0462 min}^{\mathbf{-1}}\\\\\end{array}\\\text{The value of the constant k is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.0462 min }^{\mathbf{-1}}}$}

Equation M: y = 3x + 4
solmaris [256]
Y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

3x + 4 = 3x + 7
3x - 3x = 7 - 4
0 = 3.....incorrect....this system has no solutions because ur lines are parallel and they never cross.

or look at it this way..
y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

both have slopes of 3...but the y intercepts are different......when this happens, it means the lines are parallel with no solution
