For this case we have a function of the form:

y = A * (b) ^ x

Where,

A: initial population of bacteria

b: growth rate

x: number of hours

Since the diameter is double every hour, then:

b = 2

We must now look for the value of A.

To do this, we evaluate an ordered pair of the graph:

For (1, 2):

2 = A * (2) ^ 1

Clearing A we have:

2 = A * 2

A = \frac{2}{2}\\A = 1

Then, the function is given by:

y = 1 * (2) ^ x

For after 9 hours we have:

y = 1 * (2) ^ 9\\y = 512

Answer:

the diameter of the bacteria after 9 hours is:

y = 512

Answer:

Probability = \frac{11}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

The probability that a 7th grader selected will play guitar.

From the attachment, we have:

7th\ graders =11+8+8+13

7th\ graders =40

7th graders that can play guitars are:

Guitars = 11

So, the probability is:

Probability = \frac{Guitars}{7th\ graders}

Probability = \frac{11}{40}

Write an equation that is parallel to y=-5/2x-5
NeX [460]

       A parallel equation (when graphed) will have the same slope, but a different y-intercept.

       As long as you keep y = -\frac{5}{2}x + b, you can input anything for b to solve this question.

       Given:

y = -\frac{5}{2}x - 5

       Equation of a parallel line:

y = -\frac{5}{2}x + 6, y = -\frac{5}{2}x + 1,356, y = -\frac{5}{2}x - 8, etc

     Example answer you can use:

             y = -\frac{5}{2}x - 8

1. You have three standard decks of cards in front of you. What is the probability of drawing a heart card from all three decks?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

1.56%

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard deck of cards has 52 cards, and 13 of these are hearts, as there are 4 suits, and 52/4=13. This means the probability of choosing a heart card from a deck of cards is 1/4, or 25%. Now to find the probability of doing this from 3 decks in a row, we simply cube 1/4 to get 1/64, and in percentage this is ~1.56%.
