<u>During the first hour</u> . . .
5% of the 1,000 bacteria die. At the end of the hour, 95% of them are left.
95% of 1,000 = 950
Then 100 are added : 950 + 100 = 1,050
<em>1,050</em> bacteria swimming around in the soup as the second hour begins.
<u>During the second hour</u> . . .
5% of the 1,050 bacteria die. At the end of the hour, 95% of them are left.
95% of 1,050 = 997.5
Then 100 are added : 997.5 + 100 = 1,097.5 . . . . . <em>1,098</em> rounded
===================================
<u>Playing with this some more</u>:
If the same process continues, and the result at the end of each hour
is rounded to the nearest whole number, then the number of bacteria
steadily increases, but only for 88 hours. At the end of the 88th hour,
there are 1991 of the little critters, and after that, the population stays
constant at 1991. That's because the 5% loss during each hour after
that is (5% of 1,991) = 99.55 , which rounds to 100, and those are
replaced by the 100 new ones.
Answer:
If my bank has temporarily reduced branch access or is not open, is my money still .
Well, we first know that Dominic uses 1/2 tablespoon. So if we use that 1/2 tablespoon on two sandwiches how many tablespoons does Dominic use? A whole! If you make another two sandwiches, then it will make another whole, and I whole plus one whole equals two wholes. Then, you make another one which uses another 1/2. And 1 whole plus one whole plus 1/2 a tablespoon equals 2 1/2!
