Answer:

10,219 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the population of bacteria in a culture given the formula for the population increase.

From the question, we know the formula to use is

Pt=Po*2^t/d

From the parameters in the question, we identify that Pt is ?, Po is 8300 bacteria , t is 3 hours and d is 10 hours which is the doubling time. Inserting these figures we have;

Pt = 8300 * 2^(3/10)

Pt = 8300 * 2^0.3

Pt = 10,218.5

Pt = 10,219 bacteria to the nearest whole number

Answer:

The transformation

(x,y) \rightarrow (x-5,-y+1)

maps triangle XYZ onto triangle X”Y”Z”.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take point Z on the XYZ triangle and see what sequence of transformations we have to apply to map it into the point Z''.

Now Z = (-2, 2) and Z'' = (-7, -1).

The x-coordinate goes from -2 ⇒ -7.

The y-coordinate goes from 2 ⇒  -1.

The x-coordinate is just shifted by -5; thus, x \rightarrow x-5, and the y-coordinate first transforms as y \rightarrow -y, and is then shifted by 1; thus, it transforms as y \rightarrow -y+1.

So we have the full transformation

(x,y) \rightarrow (x-5,-y+1)
