Explanation:
<u>Question 1: Write down the differential equation the mass of the bacteria, m, satisfies: m′= .2m</u>
<u></u>
a) By definition: 
b) Given: 
c) By substitution: 
<u>Question 2: Find the general solution of this equation. Use A as a constant of integration.</u>
a) <u>Separate variables</u>

b)<u> Integrate</u>


c) <u>Antilogarithm</u>



<u>Question 3. Which particular solution matches the additional information?</u>
<u></u>
Use the measured rate of 4 grams per hour after 3 hours

First, find the mass at t = 3 hours

Now substitute in the general solution of the differential equation, to find A:

Round A to 1 significant figure:
<u>Particular solution:</u>

<u>Question 4. What was the mass of the bacteria at time =0?</u>
Substitute t = 0 in the equation of the particular solution:

Answer:
x=3+2×sqrt(3)
x=3-2×sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x-3)²-24=0
2(x-3)²=24
(x-3)²=12
Case 1:
x-3=sqrt(12)=2×sqrt(3)
x=3+2×sqrt(3)
Case 2:
x-3=-sqrt(12)=-2×sqrt(3)
x=3-2×sqrt(3)
Answer:
<em>x = 0.05</em>
<em>x = 1.57</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:

Moving all terms to the left side:

Now we define a function:

The solutions of the equation are the values of x such that y=0.
Since the function cannot be solved by algebraic methods, we use a graphing tool.
Those points where the graph crosses the x-axis are solutions of the equation.
Please refer to the graph in the figure below.
We can clearly identify there are two solutions at
x = 0.05
x = 1.57
Concentric circles because if a line is tangent to one circle, it would only intersect teh other
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the integer. Then the increase can be written as ...
n + (-12) = 28
We can add 12 to both sides of this equation:
n + (-12) + (+12) = 28 +12
n + 0 = 40 . . . . . . -12 and 12 total to zero; 28 and 12 total to 40.
n = 40
The integer is 40.
