Answer:

a) The relation between y and t is

y(t)=8.6e^{ln(2)\cdot t/5}

b) y(6) = 19.8 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete: "The area covered by a certain population of bacteria increases according to a continuous exponential growth model. Suppose that a sample culture has an initial area of </em><em>8.6 mm^2</em><em> and an observed doubling time of </em><em>5 days</em><em>. (a)Let be the time (in days) passed, and let </em><em>y</em><em> be the area of the sample at time . Write a formula relating </em><em>y</em><em> to </em><em>t</em><em>. Use exact expressions to fill in the missing parts of the formula. Do not use approximations. (b)What will the area of the sample be in </em><em>6</em><em> days?</em>

As the area covered increases according to a continous growth model, we start with these relation:

y(t)=Ce^{kt}

We know that the initial area y(0) is 8.6. Then:

y(0)=Ce^0=C=8.6\\\\C=8.6

We also know that the area duplicates after 5 days.

y(t+5)=2y(t)\\\\\frac{y(0+5)}{y(0)} =2=\frac{e^{0+5k}}{e^0} =e^{5k}\\\\5k=ln(2)\\\\k=ln(2)/5\approx0.14

Then, the model becomes:

y(t)=8.6e^{ln(2)\cdot t/5}

b) We have to calculate y(6)

y(6)=8.6e^{ln(2)\cdot 6/5}=8.6e^{ 0.832}=8.6*2.297=19.758

PLEASE I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!
Yanka [14]

Answer:

1) x= 3i, x= - 3i

2) x= +i\sqrt{7}, x = - i

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x^2+9=0

(x+3i)(x-3i)=0

x= 3i, x=-3i

2) x^2-4=-11

x^2=-7

x= ±i\sqrt{7}

x= +i\sqrt{7}, x = - i

hope this helps!! :))

Grade 9 maths!!! Due tonight
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

a. 7 by 21

b. a(-12, 2), b(-12, -5), c(9, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

AD is 3 times the length of AB. X can be the length of AB. Then 3x would be the length of AD. The perimeter is 56, which would also be 3x + x + 3x + x which is 8x. This gives us 8x = 56, meaning that x is 7, or the length of AB is 7. Because AD is 3 times the length of AB (which is 7), AD = 21. Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle ABCD is 7 by 21.

Coordinates of A have to be 21 units away from D since AD = 21. It goes in the left direction, meaning that 21 is subtracted from 9 (since this is a horizontal edge involving x coordinates) while the y value remains the same. The result is (-12, 2). For coordinate B, it has to be 7 units away from A downwards since AB = 7. This means that you subtract 7 from 2 (involving only the y coordinates), resulting in (-12, -5). For coordinate C, it has to be 21 units from B since BC = AD = 21.  Because C is right compared to B, you have to add 21 to -12 (involving only the x coordinate) resulting in (9, -5).
