You want to know how long it'll take for the bacteria to grow
to (800/500) = 1.6 times their initial population.
The number of double-times it'll take is
[ log(1.6) / (log(2) ] = 0.6781 .
The double-time for these particular critters is 12 hours,
so it'll take them
0.6781 x 12 hours = 8.137 hours
= 8 hours 8.2 minutes .
An exponential decay function is:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio, t=number of times ratio is applied...We can see the initial value is 17000 so all we really have to find is the common ratio, or "rate" as some call it :P If we look at the second point, when t=1 we can see:
14280=17000r
r=357/425
r=0.84
So in five years the SUV will be worth more than the car by:
17000(0.84^5)-12000(0.89^5)
$408.73 (to the nearest cent)
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for a circumference of a circle is 2πr
2 × π × 25 = 157
so your answer is A 157in.
I hope I've helped!
