The product of the two is 0, so one of them have to equal 0 as any number multiplied by 0 is 0.

First solution: x - 4 = 0

If x - 4 = 0, then x = 4. So the first solution for <em>x </em>is 4.

Second Solution: -5x + 1 = 0

Solving...

-5x + 1 = 0

-5x = -1

x = -1/-5

x = 1/5 or 0.2

So x = 0.2 and 4

A bacteria population is 3000 at time t = 0 and its rate of growth is 1000 · 8t bacteria per hour after t hours.

julia-pushkina [17]

P=3000x e^( 1000 x 8t )is the function
t is time, so "after a hour" means that the t is 1.
The problem is asking for the population, which is P
Substitute t for 1 and you obtain:
P= 3000 x e^(1000 x 8 x 1)
P=3000e^8000
