Answer:

B(h) = 150(1.20)^{h}

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Frank's data, the number of bacteria grows by 20 percent every hour and it starts with 150 cells.

Therefore, the function to predict the population of bacteria is given by

B(h) = 150(1 + \frac{20}{100} )^{h} {Where h is the number of hours passed}

⇒ B(h) = 150(1.20)^{h}

Therefore, Frank's function that he created to predict the population of bacteria is flawed. (Answer)

qaws [65]

Answer:  Five cats ate 1 and a quarter of cat food.


Step-by-step explanation

Given:-

Cat food ate by one cat = 1/4 cup

Cat food ate by five cats =5\times \frac{1}{4} \text{ [Multiplying both sides with 5 ]}\\\\=\frac{5}{4}=\frac{4+1}{4}=\frac{4}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=1+\frac{1}{4}=1 and 1/4 cup.

Therefore cat food ate by five cats = 1 and a quarter of cup.[ here a quarter =1/4]
