Answer:
2 hours: 3968 <u>[I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]</u>
At midnight: 12137
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour. So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.
The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15. Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b. b is (1 + percent increase).
Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450
At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:
(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.
Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor, If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:
P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour. t is time, in hours.
If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is
P = ab^t
Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM. That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10
P = (3000)*(1.15)^10
P = 12137
Answer:
y = -x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The line that passes through the points (-2,4) and (0,6) has a slope of 1, and a y intercept of 6. The equation to the first line is y = x + 6. and perpendicular lines always have the opposite, reciprocal slope of the other line. So the slope for the second line would be -1. A line with the slope of -1 and a point of (5,4) would contain the points (5,4) , (4,5) , (3,6) , (2,7) , (1,8) , and (0,9) , which is the y intercept for the second line. So the equation for the second line would be y = -x + 9
Answer:
y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Solve for y</u>
2y + 3 = 4y + 2
2y + 3 - 2 - 2y = 4y + 2 - 2 - 2y
1 / 2 = 2y / 2
1/2 = y
Answer: y = 1/2
Answer Yes, because you take the answer from 100+45 and subtract 3 to get to 97 and then you add 29 to make the 47 a 74.
