Answer: A) The initial number of bacteria is 350.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential growth equation: 
, where A=Initial value, r= growth rate. (i)
Given: A bacteria sample can be modeled by the function 
which gives the number of bacteria in the sample at the end of x days.
Here, 
Compare this equation to (i) , we get A = 350 and r= 0.20 = 20% (growth rate)
So, the best interpretation of one of the values in this function are:
A) The initial number of bacteria is 350.
The coach can buy 16 uniforms with $4.50 left.
$475-6.50=$468.5÷29=16 R4.5
To find the 'maximum height' we will need to take the derivative of h(t) = –16t² + 32t + 6 then set it equal to zero, then solve for t. this t will be the time at which the ball reaches it's maximum height.
Answer:
where is the expression??
#5 is very nicely and correctly done.
#7 says: "No matter what X may be, this function of it is always 9 more than 1/2 of X .".
That's a very powerful statement. Now you know that if X is ever 2, the function will be 1/2(2)+9 which is 10.
If X is ever zero, the function will be 1/2(0)+9 which is 9. If X is ever a cow, the function will be 1/2 of a cow, plus the number 9. Which makes no sense, but that's what the function says.
So, when X is -8, the function is 1/2 of -8, plus 9. Which is 5 ... the 'f' of -8.
Whatever X happens to be at the moment, just write that number in place of X in the function, and it'll show you the function of what X is.
f(a bazillion) = 1/2(a bazillion) + 9 .
f(a-28) = 1/2(a-28) + 9 (but simplify it)
