Answer:
Option A is correct, i.e. x = -3, x = 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation is x² -4x -21 = 0.
We can compare it with general quadratic equation i.e. ax² +bx +c =0.
then a = 1, b = -4, c = -21.
We can use Quadratic formula as follows:-
x = ( -b ± √(b²-4ac) )/2a
x = ( +4 ± √(16-4*1*-21) )/2*1
x = ( +4 ± √(16+84) )/2
x = ( +4 ± √(100) )/2
x = ( +4 ± 10 )/2
x = (4+10)/2 or x = (4-10)/2
x = 14/2 or x = -6/2
x = 7 or x = -3
Hence, option A is correct, i.e. x = -3, x = 7.
A petri dish is simply a circle; thus, we use the formula of the area of the circle which is <span>πr^2.
Given r = 40 mm
A = </span>π(40)^2 = <span>5026.55 sq. mm
</span>
Population density = bacteria count / area
PD = 2,100 / <span>5026.55
PD = </span><span>0.417782 bacteria / mm sq.
Therefore, the answer is approximately 0.418 </span><span>bacteria per square millimeter.</span>
